A distributed control node enables total harmonic control. The control node measures current drawn by a load, including harmonics of the primary current. A metering device can generate an energy signature unique to the load including recording a complex current vector for the load in operation identifying the primary current with a real power component and a reactive power component, and identifying the harmonics with a real power component, a reactive power component, and an angular displacement relative to the primary current. The control node can control a noise contribution of the load due to the harmonics as seen at a point of common coupling to reduce noise introduced onto the grid network from the load.

A distributed control node enables local control of reactive power. A metering device of the control node measures energy delivered by a grid network at a point of common coupling (PCC) to which a load is coupled. The metering device determines that the load draws reactive power from the grid network. The control node draws real power from the grid and converts the real power from the grid into reactive power. The conversion of real to reactive power occurs on the consumer side of the PCC. The conversion of real to reactive power enables delivery of reactive power to a local load from real power drawn from the grid.

A distributed control node enables monitoring of complex energy signatures for local loads. The control node can identify energy signatures unique to local loads. The energy signature includes a complex current vector for the load in operation identifying the primary current with a real power component and a reactive power component, and identifying one or more harmonics each with a real power component, a reactive power component, and an angular displacement relative to the primary current. Based on the energy signature, the control node can control a noise contribution of the load due to the harmonics as seen at a point of common coupling to reduce noise introduced onto the grid network from the load.
