abstract = {.Distorted voltage and current waveforms is one of 
the problems associated to electric power quality. Continuous 
use of non-linear loads provokes the existence of voltage 
waveforms with a high distortion. Thus, it is necessary to know 
the responsible of this problem by means of the commonly 
named distortion sources identification. In this paper, the 
problem is analyzed through the harmonic power sign, with the 
objective of knowing the sense of harmonic power flow 
between source and one load in distorted systems. Nowadays, it 
has already been established in the Literature that an analysis of 
this kind does not solve the problem. Recently, new indices 
have been introduced to evaluate a specific consumer distortion 
level. In this paper, a comparative analysis of these indices is 
carried out, having as reference a practical case. The results 
obtained show that, in fact, these indices can help to valuate the 
harmonic distortion, although none of them solve the question 
definitively.},
