1 Introduction

In the LED large screen, multi-power distributed switching power supply has been widely used, and the harmonic components generated by it have an increasingly serious impact on power grids and electrical equipment. How to suppress harmonic components has become a concern.

Switching power supplies generally use high-power semiconductor devices as switching elements, control the switches according to certain rules, and adjust the duty cycle to adjust the output voltage. The switching power supply is generally composed of a rectifier and a filter capacitor, and the AC input voltage is converted into a DC output voltage after entering a filter, a rectifier, and a filter capacitor. Nowadays, switching power supplies are gradually being developed to high frequency, high reliability, low power consumption, low noise, anti-jamming and modularization.

2, LED display harmonics cause

The LED needs low-voltage DC drive, so a large number of display projects use switching power supply to provide the drive for the display module. In order to reduce the loss of low-voltage direct current in various transmission links, the display panel distribution generally uses a large number of low-power switching power supply modules and is configured as a distributed local low-voltage DC power supply mode. This realization method solves the problem of low-voltage transmission loss, but it brings problems such as harmonic pollution and excessive midline current. The reasons are:

The switching power supply is a typical harmonic source. Its harmonic content is very high and its waveform is an intermittent spike. Since the generally used switching power supply has a small capacity (a typical case is the power supply of a laptop), it does not attract sufficient attention. However, if a large number of switching power supplies operate at the same time, the harmonics generated by them will not be ignored. If they are not dealt with, they may cause pollution to the power supply network and cause unpredictable damage to other devices in the same network.

For a conventional three-phase balanced load, the normal current of the neutral line is generally less than 30 % of the phase current . No matter how the load distribution is configured on the display screen system, instantaneous three-phase imbalance will eventually occur due to changes in the display screen. In addition to the effects of harmonic currents, the zero line current can reach 280 % of the phase current .

3, LED display harmonic harm

Excessive harmonics cause excessive current in the neutral conductor. Excessive current in the neutral conductor is a serious fire hazard. There is no overcurrent protection device on the zero line, unlike the fuses on the phase line, which can be cut off when the current is too high. Current. When the current on the neutral line is too large, it can only allow its temperature to rise, accelerating the aging of the cable, and even cause a fire.

Not only for harmonic current harmonics, and because the harmonic current impact on power supply voltage contain harmonics, voltage waveform odd change will make serious and may result in adverse effects on other sensitive electrical equipment, and even make it work properly with Related legal liability problems, such as the network server of a company in the same building, caused a sudden power outage and caused losses.

4. Application of ANAPF Low Voltage Active Filter in LED Display

Place a large outdoor LED display, the display power supply system of distributed switching power supply 850 30OW parallel operation, the total power of a total of 250kw. Switching power supply is a typical harmonic source. It has the characteristics of high current harmonic distortion, large harmonic content, wide harmonic spectrum, capacitive load, and low power factor. When a large number of switching power supplies are used in a centralized manner, the neutral line current is too high, the power factor is low, and the current harmonic distortion rate is high, which affects the normal operation of the LED display.

4. 2 harmonic current estimation of ANAPF active filter device

Harmonics are generated by non-linear devices, and the actual operating conditions of each device are different. Therefore, the actual harmonic current needs to be measured with special equipment. Considering the technical and economical performance of the equipment, the harmonic compensation current designed for the harmonic control device should be slightly larger than the system harmonic current. Because the measurement and calculation of the harmonic current itself are more complicated, and it is often difficult to collect enough harmonic data in use of the electrical equipment during design, the harmonic current can be estimated according to the following formula.

Among them, K1 is the load ratio: that is, the ratio of the load to the rated capacity of the transformer, usually 0.7-0.8;

K2 is the harmonic coefficient, which varies according to the system situation;

ST is the rated capacity of the transformer in kVA;

US is the low voltage system voltage, which generally takes 0.4.

Based on the estimated values, a 100A ANAPF active filter was selected for harmonic control.

4. 3 ANAPF active filter input before and after comparison

4. 3.1 ANAPF active filter when not mounted LED screen control switchgear line-side power quality data

When the active filter is not installed , the LED screen controls the maximum total harmonic current content on the incoming side of the switchgear cabinet 98.4% , the total harmonic voltage distortion ratio 8.4% , and the total line harmonic distortion rate 1724.3% . Among them, the 3rd harmonic is the maximum harmonic current , A phase 41.8A , B phase 41.7A , C phase 38A , neutral line current 122.2A , including harmonic power factor 0.68 , the total harmonic voltage is seriously beyond the national standard 380V low voltage side harmonic THDu wave voltage distortion value of ≤5% requirement. 3 more severe over standard abroad harmonic voltage 380V low voltage side of the odd-order harmonic distortion THD≤4% requirement.

4. 3 .2   After the installation of active filter device , the LED screen controls the incoming line power quality data of the switchgear

After the active filter was put into ANAPF LED screen control switchgear line-side maximum total current harmonic content is reduced to 51% total harmonic voltage distortion to 3.1% neutral 94.1% total harmonic distortion. The 3rd harmonic current A phase 1.4A , B phase 1.1A , C phase 1.8A , neutral current 9.8A , including harmonic power factor increased to 0.81 . THDu total harmonic voltage distortion value to 3.3%. 3rd harmonic voltage drop below the national standard 380V low voltage side of the odd-order harmonic distortion THD≤4% requirement.

From the above figure, we can see that the ANAPF active filter protects the safety, stability, and economic operation of the LED power supply system, prevents misoperation of the over-current quick-break protection, and is conducive to the safe and stable operation of the power grid and the system.
