Based on the harmonic apparent power defined by the IEEE 1459-2010 power standard, the paper proposed a new method of identifying the main harmonic source at the point of common coupling (PCC). Using the reference impedance method, the utility and customer harmonic voltage and current contributions are calculated. And then combined with the IEEE 1459-2010 standard, defined the harmonic apparent power caused by the independent action of the equivalent harmonic source on the system side and the user side, by directly comparing the size of the two to determine the location of the main harmonic source. The method can consider the comprehensive influence of harmonic voltage and harmonic current, then identify the main harmonic source at PCC point. Finally, the rationality of the method is verified by the simulation of the IEEE 13 node system.
