In this paper, with the motivation of using a simple demand meter for the detection of the harmonic producing loads, a harmonic source detection method is proposed by means of the single-point measurements of Scattered Power defined in Czarnecki's power resolution. In addition, the employability of the method is rigorously investigated using the comparative statistical experimental analysis. The obtained results verified that it can effectively be used for the detection of harmonic producing loads in the systems with the reasonable total harmonic distortion (THDV) values of the point of common coupling (pcc) voltage.
