15 a year, with normal life expectancy as
defined in ANSI C57.96.
16 Short-term overload capacity is

designed into transformers, as required
by ANSI. Encapsulated transformers
17 will deliver 200% of nameplate load for
30 minutes; 150% of nameplate load
for 1 hour; and 125% of nameplate load

Note: Continuous overload capacity is not

This irregular current demand, as

types of loads are commonly referred
to as non-sinusoidal, or nonlinear. 5

In Figure 19.1-4, the fundamental 10
frequency is 60 Hz. The fundamental
frequency is assigned the harmonic
number of 1, and is the benchmark for 11
all other harmonic numbering. The
fundamental, 60 Hz sine wave completes
60 full cycles in one second. The 3rd 12
harmonic completes three full cycles
in the time it takes the fundamental to
complete just one cycle, or 180 cycles 13
per second. Likewise, the 5th harmonic
completes five full cycles in the time
it takes the fundamental harmonic to 14
complete a single cycle, which equates
to 300 cycles per second. Odd multi-
