What this part means
The lower label selects a particular version, component, or indexed member of the quantity. For example, x₀ and xₜ can be values at different positions.
Its job in the formula
A subscript distinguishes a version, component, step, or member of a quantity. It does not automatically mean multiplication.

The passage around this formula
The instrumentation baseline for a new site starts with IEEE 519, the North American reference for harmonic control, which frames the problem around the point of common coupling — the interface between the utility and the customer — and assigns the utility responsibility for background voltage distortion while assigning the customer responsibility for the current distortion its own equipment injects [ 7 ] . The standard’s working measure of current distortion, total demand distortion, is the root-sum-square of harmonic currents up to the fiftieth order expressed as a fraction of the maximum demand current rather than of the instantaneous fundamental:
Learn the underlying idea
A subscript is a label attached below a symbol. It often selects a time step, component, category, or member of a sequence.
