The material in this recommended practice originally comes from Chapter 10 of the IEEE Brown Book™, IEEE Std 399™-1997, Recommended Practice for Industrial and Commercial Power Systems Analysis but includes major modifications based on the latest technological advancements. This publication provides a recommended practice for conducting harmonic studies and analysis of power systems in commercial and industrial facilities. It is likely to be of greatest value to the power-oriented engineer with limited commercial or industrial plant experience. It can also be an aid to all engineers responsible for the electrical design of commercial and industrial facilities. It should be considered a guide and general reference on analysis of commercial and industrial facilities.
Bio: Peter E. Sutherland received the B.S at University of Maine at Orono, the MScE at the University of New Brunswick (Canada) and the PhD at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. For over thirty years, Dr. Sutherland has specialized in electrical power system studies. After joining GE in 1987, he worked in GE’s Industrial Power Systems Engineering Operation, the GE Training and Development Center, GE Installation and Service Engineering, GE Power Systems Energy Consulting, GE Renewables and GE Industrial Solutions, which became part of ABB in 2018. He has also worked for EPRI and SuperPower in Schenectady, NY. He retired from ABB in 2022. He is a Life Fellow of the IEEE, a Fellow of the IET (UK), and has had PE licenses in several states.
