This paper presents a PC-based mini-project in power distribution system harmonics simulation for undergraduate students. The developed software may be used as a tool to assist the student in the analysis and design of a typical distribution system by taking into account the significant levels of harmonics. The paper also demonstrates the use of the harmonics filter which can identify the harmonics effect before and after the filter installation.
