Voltage Distortion Derating
Figure 3-4: Voltage Distortion Derating Curve
This plot assists in proper de-rating of a Matrix E-Series harmonic filter in environments with a
preexisting voltage distortion. Example: In a system with 10% voltage distortion, a Matrix filter
will need to be oversized by 5.5% to obtain the same performance as an appropriate filter in a
0% distortion environment.
