*Abstract: This invention is a process whereby a single-phase current can be injected between two lines of a three-phase ac system for the purpose of measuring source and load impedances (source and load are defined by the point at which the current is injected). Besides the injection and signal demodulation process, this invention details a practical current injection device which is a simple power electronic circuit. The circuit is also capable of injecting currents in a dc system for impedance measurement. Impedances can be measured over a wide range of frequencies for applications such as machine parameter measurement and power system stability assessment.
