16.1 What is Input Harmonic Analysis? Back to top
Harmonic Analysis seems like a power analyzer in real bench, it shows the input harmonic current content, distortion, power factor, etc., with just a click. More than that, user can select different class of limit lines and see whether the design can meet international standard.

If user already select a design, this tool will inherently get all necessary parameters from the design and show the corresponding result with just a click.

If no design is selected, user can select some basic simple rectified loading to estimate the input harmonic current content., it give user a very quick estimation without building the whole circuit.
