Abstract
This article presents an analysis of electrical parameters in a three-phase circuit characterized by the generation of harmonics. The Currents Physical Components (CPC) power theory for three-phase circuits were used. Relationships for three-wire circuits were used, and mathematical relationships were determined to enable decomposition into those components that depend on the direction of energy flow and the reasons for their creation. A calculation example using the previously determined dependencies was presented, and the results of the calculations were discussed. When mathematical analyses are required in circuits with non-linear receivers, and in particular, when there is a cooperation of several such receivers with a common power grid, the calculation concept presented is important. The generation of identical harmonic orders by several receivers causes a disturbance in the direction of energy flow in the power grid. For this reason, the case of a non-linear receiver generating harmonics of orders that has existed before in the power grid seems very interesting. Determining the value of individual powers can be used to estimate the impact of individual receivers on the quality of electricity.
