Symbol I_L

TDD=100IL∑h=250Ih2 %,\mathrm{TDD} = \frac{100}{I_L}\sqrt{\sum_{h=2}^{50} I_h^2}\ \%,
ILI_L

What this part means

ILI_L occurs below the fraction bar. The quantity above the bar is divided by this expression; zero is excluded as a denominator.

The passage around this formula

…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 ILI_L rather than of the instantaneous fundamental: TDD=100IL∑h=250Ih2 %\mathrm{TDD} = \frac{100}{I_L}\sqrt{\sum_{h=2}^{50} I_h^2}\ \%. a normalization that matters operationally because it means a monitor sampling only during a quiet period will systematically overstate a site’s distortion relative to its own historical demand baseline — one more reason a…
