Distribution System Harmonic Filtering

Just West of Pocatello lies a large agricultural base. Irrigation is the key to a good crop yield.
The AC motors used to pump water for irrigation use Variable Frequency Drives.
These VFD's are causing harmonic current problems outside the IEEE 519 standard
Our project consists of developing a process to mitigate harmonics for any given feeder, using the Pleasant Valley as the proof of concept
