Devices using 6-pulse technology may cause motor overheating/failure and resonance problems if generated 5th and 7th harmonic currents are not eliminated
Most modern industrial facilities have widespread applications of nonlinear loads, many of which represent a significant portion of the total facility load. As a result, they can inject harmonic currents into the power system, causing harmonic distortion in voltage. Compounding this problem is the fact that these nonlinear loads typically have a low power factor (PF), forcing many industrial facilities
