Not all frequencies that occur on an electrical power system are integer multiples of the fundamental frequency (usually 60 Hz), as are harmonics. Some loads draw currents that result in voltages that are between harmonic frequencies or less than the fundamental frequency. These frequencies are referred to as interharmonics and can be made of discrete frequencies or as a wide-band spectrum. A special category of these interharmonics is called subharmonics, in which the frequencies involved are less than the fundamental power line frequency.
