Abstract
In a method for monitoring and/or control of a plant component (4A, 4B, 4C, 4D) connected to an electric power network (N1, N2), for example a tunable filter for harmonic filtering or a capacitor bank for generating reactive power in a converter plant for high-voltage direct current, products of, respectively, a voltage (U.sub.A, U.sub.B, U.sub.C, U.sub.D) occurring in the plant component and of a current (I.sub.A, I.sub.B, I.sub.C, I.sub.D, I.sub.AC) flowing therethrough are formed, and sine and cosine signals, the frequencies of which are equal to the product of the ordinal number of a selected tone and a fundamental frequency associated with the power network, the products are integrated and the phase difference (.phi..sub.un -.phi..sub.In) and/or the amplitude value (SUn, SIn, respectively) between/for the components of the voltage and the current of the selected tone are formed by quotient generation, multiplication, and summation of the integrated products.
