K-Factor Transformers for Nonlinear Loads by abhi_26t is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Harmonic currents generated by nonlinear loads can cause problems in power systems and overheat transformers. K-factor transformers are designed to accommodate harmonic currents and allow full-rated operation without derating, unlike conventional transformers which may require derating. The increased use of electronic devices and power supplies means nonlinear loads are now common even in residential power systems, generating harmonic currents that stress system components.
