AccuSine Selection Program

Release Date:
9-May-2013
Not applicable for neutral harmonic current calculations.
Not applicable for VAR Compensation (Flicker) selection.
Not applicable for calculating displacement PF adjustments from leading to lagging or vice versa.

1.

This selection tool is applicable for selecting an optimized AccuSine (SWP, PCS or PFV) system to be used for any
combination of the following modes: harmonic mitigation, displacement power factor correction (Cos ), or mains current
balancing.

2.

Follow the 'Comments' and 'Pop-up Statements' within the 'AccuSine Selection Tool' worksheet.
a. Complete the electrical system data when compliance to a harmonic standard is required.
No electrical system information is required when selection is made for a specified Total Demand Distortion (TDD)
b. value in the 'TDD Required' cell or when Harmonic mode is not selected. [A default Short Circuit Ratio (ShCR) of
2501:1 in used if no electrical system data is entered.]
c. Cell comments and pop-up statements are provided for clarifications and directions.
d. All yellow cells are data entry fields.
e. An 'User Selected AccuSine Rating' must be made to obtain corrected results.

3.

4.

AccuSine SWP has two modes of operation: Harmonic Mitigation and Displacement Power Factor (Cos ) Correction.
AccuSine PCS has three modes of operation: Harmonic Mitigation, Displacement Power Factor (Cos) Correction, and
Mains Current Balancing.
AccuSine PFV has two modes of operation: Displacement Power Factor (Cos ) and Mains Current Balancing.

AccuSine PCS has the ability to assign functional priority between Harmonic mode and PF/Mains Current Balancing
modes. Adjustment of priority may affect the size of the AccuSine PCS systems. "Percent of AccuSine PCS system
assigned for Harmonic Mitigation" must be completed and adjusted to optimize the AccuSine PCS System selection when
multiple modes are selected with Harmonic mode.
PF correction and Mains Current Balancing are fundamental current adjustments. If these two modes are activated and
available current of the AccuSine PCS system is not adequate, the correction of displacement PF and Mains Current
Balancing will be proportioned equally.

a.

If it is desired that Harmonic mode has first priority, enter 100% in 'Percent of AccuSine PCS system assigned for
Harmonic Mitigation' cell. This assigns the capacity of the AccuSine PCS system to perform harmonic correction first
and then use the remaining capacity for PF/Mains Current Balancing modes of operation. If all of the capacity is used
for harmonic correction, then no PF correction or Mains Current Balancing can occur.

b.

If it is desired that PF/Mains Current Balancing modes have first priority, enter 0% in 'Percent of AccuSine PCS system
assigned for Harmonic Mitigation' cell. This assigns the full capacity of the AccuSine PCS system to first perform PF
correction and/or Mains Current Balancing and then use the remaining capacity to perform Harmonic correction. If all
of the capacity is used for PF correction and/or Mains Current Balancing, then no Harmonic mitigation can occur.

c.

By assigning values between 0% and 100%, the allocation of the AccuSine PCS system can be adjusted. Proper
adjustment will optimize the AccuSine PCS system size.

5.

The worksheet titled 'Model Selector' uses information from the 'AccuSine Selection Tool' worksheet to identify the
quantities and model numbers for the AccuSine system that meet your needs. Selection of EMC compatibility and
enclosure style is required on this worksheet to complete model selection. Ambient temperature and/or altitude
adjustments are also possible.

6.

The worksheet titled 'CT Selector' uses data from 'AccuSine Selection Tool' and 'Model Selector' worksheets to identify the
CT size and quantities required. Additional data entry is required to complete.

The worksheet titled 'Typical TDD Levels' displays typical Total Demand Distortion (TDD - same as THDi at full load) values
for PWM VFD with different amounts of installed inductive impedance at various short circuit current values.
7.

DC bus chokes and input line reactor impedances (Z) are summed for total impedance for PWM VFD. The results are used
for PWM VFD solutions.
BEST PRACTICE for 6-pulse PWM VFD is inclusion of 3% to 5% total impedance either installed in the DC bus, on the 3phase mains input, or both for significant initial TDD reductions. If very low to no impedance is installed compliance to any
standard is doubtful.

8.

DC drives, UPS w/SCR (thyristor) rectifiers, and SCR (thyristor) power supplies cause a unique phenomena identified as
'voltage notching'. Voltage notching can adversely effect other SCR (thyristor) rectifiers and electronic loads installed on
the same distribution bus. Voltage notching can only be reduced by installing 3% to 5% impedance line reactors. Active
harmonic filters cannot remedy voltage notching due to SCR (thyristor) rectifiers.
BEST PRACTICE is to install 3-phase line reactors with 3-5% impedance at the input rectifier to smooth voltage notches
and reduce voltage distortion due to the voltage notches.
If there are any questions, please, consult your local Schneider Electric representative.

PCS/PFV

The above selection assumes one mains (power) 'source.' If more mains (power) sources are present and CT
position is 'source', then additional sets of CT may be required. One set per source location may be required.
Selection of Current Transformers (CT) is site specific. The CT amperage rating must meet or exceed the expected
maximum load current amplitude to be monitored.
CT used with AccuSine SWP must have a 1 amp secondary.
CT used with AccuSine PCS and PFV must have a 5 amp secondary.
All CT must have a frequency response of 50-400 Hz and Class 1 accuracy.

If there are any questions, please, consult your Schneider Electric representative.
