EMC of Wideband Power Sources

In this paper the results of the EMC tests of the wideband power sources: the PWM-based power source and audio power amplifier are discussed. They are intended to be used to supply the measuring system developed for evaluation of the wideband transformation accuracy of instrument transformers. Therefore, it is required to detect possible interferences that may be caused by the power supply to its operation and that may cause a decrease in its accuracy. The tests concern the conducted emission in the frequencies range from 150 kHz to 30 MHz and the radiated emission in the frequencies range from 30 MHz to 1 GHz. Moreover, the level of conducted disturbances in frequencies range from 100 Hz to 5 kHz generated into the supplying current is measured and the immunity of both wideband power sources to low frequency conductive disturbances in the supplying voltage and current is tested. Then, the voltage gain error and phase shift of the output voltage are measured. The EMC tests of both power sources show lack of compliance with the requirement of the standard IEC 61326-1. However, in system application of the audio power amplifier is possible if required increased immunity to conducted emission of the measuring system is ensured.


Introduction
Wideband power sources are required in many applications, but one of the most demanding of them is supplying the measuring systems designed for testing of the inductive instrument transformers [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14]. This is due to the fact that all the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) requirements must not interfere with the operation of the sensitive measuring system, and simultaneously a high output power is required. This results from the nonlinearity of the magnetization characteristics of the magnetic core of the inductive instrument transformers, and the necessity to be tested in their rated operating conditions [12,13]. Therefore, during testing of wideband accuracy of voltage instrument transformers and dividers increases the exposure to the magnetic field from high voltage [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]. Additionally, the supplying of the measuring system used for testing current instrument transformers requires high immunity to the magnetic field from the high current track [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14]. Wideband testing procedures of transformation accuracy of inductive instrument transformers at harmonics of distorted current or voltage and requirements for the measuring and supplying systems are still under development [5,[8][9][10]14,15]. The demand for such tests results from the low power quality of current and voltage in the power networks [1,11]. According to EU directive 2014/30/EU the electrical equipment should meet the requirements of electromagnetic compatibility [16]. It ensures that electrical and electronic equipment does not generate, or is not affected by, electromagnetic disturbance. The wideband power sources are subject to the standard IEC 61326-1 that covers specify requirements for immunity and emission including the limits of radiated and conductive disturbances for electrical equipment, operating from the circuit being measured [17]. In the field of conducted and radiated emission of disturbances power sources are subject to the standard EN 55011, which complies with general requirements of the standard IEC 61000-6-4 for emission in industrial environments [18,19].
In the paper [20], the development of a programmable three phase AC power source is presented. It is capable of providing a stable voltage with variable amplitude and variable frequency over a wide range. Moreover, it can generate low harmonic distortion arbitrary waveforms. In the paper [21], the response for the need for calibrators of different electrical equipment to generate non-sinusoidal voltages and currents is presented. Voltage harmonics magnitude and phase angle closed control loops enable accurate and precise adjustment of waveform parameters. The aim of this work is the development of a wideband power supply specified for laboratory testing with distorted current and voltage where the level and phase of each higher harmonics are individually selectable. One tested power source is self-made from audio power amplifier and arbitrary waveform generator and its behavior is compared with an off-the-shelf source type Chroma 61504. The application of the power source is to supply the step-up current or voltage transformer to test the wideband transformation accuracy of inductive instrument transformers [9,[11][12][13][14][15]. The results of the EMC test of the audio power amplifier are compared with the results obtained for the off-the-shelf source. Moreover, the different modes of operation tested to find the worst condition concern the different loads and also the output frequency of the source. Furthermore, the voltage gain error and phase shift between input and output of tested power source at different frequencies are measured to determine if the input waveform composed of many harmonics is accurately reproduced.

Objects of the Research
The EMC tests were performed on two wideband power sources. Device A is a PWM-based power source model Chroma 61504 and device B is an audio power amplifier. The PWM-based power source has four main elements: input stage with active power factor correction, DC rail, PWM control circuit and output-stage inverter. The power factor correction is provided the control of the current of the inductor and output capacitor by the MOSFET drive in order to ensure that input current and the AC line voltage are in phase with each other. A PWM-controlled inverter is formed by two transistors, each one is used for the lower or upper part of the waveform generated as a series of variouswidth rectangles [15,22]. The rated power of the tested PWM-based power source is equal to 2 kVA. A total of two voltage ranges are available: 0 to 150 and 0 to 300 V, with the maximum rms values of the output current equal to 16 or 8 A, respectively. Its frequency band of operation with the rated apparent power is equal to 1 kHz.
The tested audio power amplifier is a linear amplifier of class H with the output stage transistors operating in class AB. They are working in the push-pull topology. The crossover distortion is reduced as each transistor is conducting for more than half of the period. The H class amplifiers are more power efficient as they are designed to draw power from the higher voltage rail only when the output voltage is higher than in the low voltage rail. It has two channels that can either work separately or bridged to double the output voltage. Common control of gain will automatically track each channel identically and the input voltage of the first channel will be amplified in the counter-phase by each channel. The rated output power is equal to 2 kW and is available into 2 Ω rated output resistance per channel or 4 kW into 4 Ω in the bridge mode. The rms output voltage is equal to 70 V for each channel separately or 140 V bridged. The rated rms value of the output currents is equal to 28 A. The application of a linear amplifier to provide a wideband power source requires an arbitral waveform generator to control the input signal. The wideband power source composed of the audio power amplifier with an arbitrary generator enables for a 1 4 of the price twice higher active output power than the PWM-based power source. The main advantage of the off-the-shelf source is its ability for autonomous operation. However, its frequency band of operation with its rated output power is only 1 kHz. Moreover, during operation with high inductive impedance the output voltage of the audio power amplifier is limited by 2 [15]. It is a typical load when the step-up current and AC test transformers are supplied [1][2][3][4]8,9,13,14].

Conducted and Radiated Emission Tests
The tests in the field of electromagnetic compatibility concern measurements of the conducted emission according to the IEC 61326-1 standard in the frequencies range from 150 kHz to 30 MHz and the tests of radiated emission in the frequencies range from 30 MHz to 1 GHz [16]. The conducted disturbance emission was tested with the use of the SMR 4503 measuring receiver, the LISN artificial network NNB-51 and a computer with COMPLIANCE-3 software version 3.90 (Figure 1a). The emission of radiated disturbances was tested with the use of the GTEM-1000 chamber, the SMR 4503 measuring receiver and a computer with COMPLIANCE-3 software version 3.90 (Figure 1b). amplifier is limited by 2 [15]. It is a typical load when the step-up current and AC test transformers are supplied [1][2][3][4]8,9,13,14].

Conducted Disturbances Tests in Frequencies Range from 100 Hz to 5 kHz
The next stage of laboratory tests aims to determine the level of conducted disturbances produced by two tested power sources in the frequency range from 100 Hz to 5 kHz. The measurements were made for inductive and resistive loads and different rms values of output current. The measuring circuit used to determine the rms values of harmonics in supplying current is presented in Figure 10. of output current. The measuring circuit used to determine the rms values of harmonics in supplying current is presented in Figure 10. In Figure 10, the following notations are used: AWG-arbitrary waveform generator, DPM-digital power meter, D-A/D-B-device A (PWM-based power source) or device B (audio power amplifier), PPS-programmable power supply, LO-load impedance of tested devices.
Utilization of the programmable power source ensures the pure sinusoidal voltage of frequency equal to 50 Hz to supply tested devices. To determine the total harmonic distortion factors (THDi) of suppling current one module of the digital power meter (DPM) is used to measure the rms values of harmonics of current and voltage. Moreover, the second module is used to measure output power to ensure the required load. In accordance with the standard IEC 50160 THDi factor may be calculated from formula [23]: second module is used to measure output power to ensure the required load. In accordance with the standard IEC 50160 THDi factor may be calculated from formula [23]: In Table 1 calculated values of THDi factors for supply currents of tested PWM-based power source and audio power amplifier are presented. The percentage values of a given higher harmonics are presented in Figure 11.   The PWM-based power source has a much lower distortion of the supply current in comparison with the audio power amplifier as results of determined values of total harmonics distortion factor. This results from the application of the power factor correction system that controls the time of charging of the output capacitor of DC rail through the inductor [15]. The highest value of the THDi factor was detected in the case of the PWMbased power source for the rms value of the output current equal to 1 A. The lowest value is obtained for the maximum rms value of the output current equal to 6.5 A. There are no detected changes in obtained values due to the type of the load. The results for the audio power amplifier as well show no influence of the power factor but significant dependence on the load value, therefore the rms value of the output current.
The audio power amplifier is characterized by a supply current consisting of higher The PWM-based power source has a much lower distortion of the supply current in comparison with the audio power amplifier as results of determined values of total harmonics distortion factor. This results from the application of the power factor correction system that controls the time of charging of the output capacitor of DC rail through the inductor [15]. The highest value of the THDi factor was detected in the case of the PWMbased power source for the rms value of the output current equal to 1 A. The lowest value is obtained for the maximum rms value of the output current equal to 6.5 A. There are no detected changes in obtained values due to the type of the load. The results for the audio power amplifier as well show no influence of the power factor but significant dependence on the load value, therefore the rms value of the output current.
The audio power amplifier is characterized by a supply current consisting of higher harmonics which rms values are significantly exceeding the limiting values specified in the standard EN 61000- 3-12 [24]. This results from a distortion of the waveform of supply current presented in Figure 12b. It will increase the exposure of the measuring systems connected to the same AC mains. Parts 3-16, covering limits for harmonic currents produced by energy supplying equipment with a rated current less than or equal to 75 A per phase connected to public low-voltage systems, is still not available. The differences in the percentage values of the higher harmonics generated into the supplying current of the PWM-based power source result from the rms value of the output current. If the rms value of the output current is equal to 6.5 A, the rms values of suppling current is the highest, therefore the percentage values of higher harmonics are the lowest (Figure 11). In case when its rms value drops to 2.5 A for both resistive and inductive loads the rms values of harmonics of the input current are equal but significantly increased. In Figure 12 the waveforms of the output and input currents and voltages measured for the PWM-based power source and the audio power amplifier for these conditions are presented. The waveform of the suppling current of the audio power amplifier (Figure 12b) is similar to a typical rectifier. The principle of operation of the power factor correction system in the PWM-based power source ensures significantly lower distortion of the suppling current. Moreover, its waveform is the same for inductive and resistance load, however the rms values of output current and voltages are different [25].

Gain, Phase Linearity, and Conducted Disturbances Immunity Tests
The next stage of laboratory tests of the power sources was to determine the linearity of their voltage gain and phase shift with frequency in the range from 50 Hz to 5 kHz for sinusoidal and distorted input voltage. These tests were carried out in the measuring circuit presented in Figure 13.  The waveform of the suppling current of the audio power amplifier (Figure 12b) is similar to a typical rectifier. The principle of operation of the power factor correction system in the PWM-based power source ensures significantly lower distortion of the suppling current. Moreover, its waveform is the same for inductive and resistance load, however the rms values of output current and voltages are different [25].

Gain, Phase Linearity, and Conducted Disturbances Immunity Tests
The next stage of laboratory tests of the power sources was to determine the linearity of their voltage gain and phase shift with frequency in the range from 50 Hz to 5 kHz for sinusoidal and distorted input voltage. These tests were carried out in the measuring circuit presented in Figure 13.
In Figure 13 the notations are used as in Figure 10, additionally: RVD-wideband reference voltage divider, DEC-wideband converter of differential voltage to single ended voltage.
The tested devices (D-A/D-B) are supplied by the programmable power source (PPS) fed by the arbitrary waveform generator (AWG) which enables to generate any supply voltage waveform required for the conducted disturbances immunity tests. The wideband reference voltage divider (RVD) is used to step-down the output voltage of the tested power source. The voltage ratio of the used RVD is selected in order to obtain the required gain for a given test conditions [2,4,26]. The measuring system is composed of a digital power meter (DPM), in which the second module is used to measure the rms values of harmonics (up to 100th) of output voltage and current, as well as the phase shift between them. Moreover, the value and power factor of the load is determined. To obtain the values of voltage gain error and phase shift of harmonics caused by the tested device first module of DPM is used to measure the rms values of harmonics of input voltage and the rms values of harmonics of differential voltage between the output voltage of RVD and the input voltage of tested power source. Application of the high impedance wideband converter of differential voltage to single ended voltage (DEC) is required in ordered to prevent the impact of measuring circuit on the output voltage of used RVD [6,14]. The rms power amplifier (yellow-supply voltage, green-supply current, red-output voltage, blue-output current).
The waveform of the suppling current of the audio power amplifier (Figure 12b) is similar to a typical rectifier. The principle of operation of the power factor correction system in the PWM-based power source ensures significantly lower distortion of the suppling current.

The tested devices (D-A/D-B) are supplied by the programmable power source (PPS) fed by the arbitrary waveform generator (AWG) which enables to generate any supply The value of the voltage gain error of hk harmonic of the output voltage may be calculated from equation: The percentage value of the hk harmonic of the composite error resulting from its voltage gain error and additional phase sift in the output voltage is determined from equation: Determined hk values of the composite error and voltage gain errors are used to calculate the value of the additional phase shift of harmonic of the output voltage: Gain and phase linearity test with the frequency of the input voltage during amplification of sinusoidal of frequency equal to 50 or 500 Hz, and distorted input voltages were performed when tested devices were supplied by the programmable power source. The percentage values of higher harmonics were equal to the required values by the relevant standard [19]. Tests were performed in the no-load state and when the output active power was equal to 1500, 770, and 440 W or apparent power was equal to 1500, 770, and 440 VA with power factor equal to 0.45 were performed. The measurement results are presented in Figure 14. In the case of the PWM-based power source the most significant impact on the value of the voltage gain error and phase shift has the frequency of the input voltage. In the noload state the voltage gain errors (Figure 14a) have lower values than in the load state (from 20th harmonic). This may result from increased additional voltage drop on internal elements of the device for increased output current. The same values of voltage gain errors and phase shift were obtained regardless of the value of the load power factor. Furthermore, even for the case when conducted disturbances occur in the supply of PWM-based power source, the frequency characteristics of voltage gain errors and phase shift are the same as in Figure 14.
The frequency characteristic of voltage gain errors and phase shift for audio power amplifier is presented in Figure 15. In the case of the audio power amplifier the most significant impact on the value of the voltage ratio error has the frequency of the input voltage but it is negligible taking into comparison the results determined for the PWM-based power source. This phenomenon is caused by the input low pass filter that is selected at too high a frequency. Moreover, there are slight changes in the power factor and value of the load of the power amplifier ±0.5%. Furthermore, even for the case when conducted disturbances occur in its supply voltage and current the frequency characteristics of voltage gain errors and phase shift are the same as in Figure 15.

Conclusions
The EMC tests of both power sources show the lack of compliance with the requirement of the standard IEC 61326-1. In the case of the tested PWM-based power source the problem concerned exceeded limits of the radiated emissions, while in the audio power amplifier the level of conducted emissions was too high. In the case of conducted disturbances in the frequencies range from 100 Hz to 5 kHz generated into the supplying current by the PWM-based power source their level results from the rms value of supply current. This is caused by the pulsed operation of the rectifier in the PWM-based power source and it is significantly lower than in the case of the audio power amplifier. This is ensured by the application of the power factor correction system that controls the time of charging of the output capacitor of DC rail through the inductor. The immunity of both wideband power sources to low frequency conductive disturbances in the supply voltage and current results from the conversion of the input power by DC rail. In the case of the PWM-based power source the most significant impact on the value of the voltage gain error and phase shift has the frequency of the input voltage. Therefore, the feedback loop used by the manufacturer for the control of the rms values of harmonics of the output voltage is required. The results of the research clearly show that the EMC tests of the wideband power sources intended to be used for supplying the measuring systems are essential for their proper operation.
