Abstract The paper presents a new method for estimating the contribution of distortion sources based on the application of passive harmonic filters. The method does not require the measurement of harmonic network impedance and is based on the measurement of harmonic currents of the grid, consumers and passive harmonic filters. Evaluation of the consumer contribution using a passive harmonic filter is necessary to select the parameters and connection points for harmonic reduction devices. A feature of the method is the correct determination of share contributions, regardless of background harmonic distortions. Based on this method, a single consumer can evaluate both the harmonic contributions of its own loads, even in the presence of background distortions, and the harmonic voltage distortions in the case of installing harmonic reduction devices. The research results are confirmed in laboratory conditions with various combinations of electrical loads connected both at the grid side and at the consumer side. For such conditions, the proposed method was compared with existing methods, among which are methods based on the measurement of harmonic voltage vectors, harmonic current vectors and active harmonic power. The application of the developed method was demonstrated using the example of a gas production field.
