Power Quality Compensating System Using Series Active Power Filter

  • Published : 2001.10.01

Abstract

Voltage harmonics resulting from current harmonics produced by the nonlinear loads have become a serious problem in many systems. Moreover momentary interruptions and voltage sags are responsible for many of the power quality problems found in typical industrial plants. In this paper, proposed power system using series active power filter is not only harmonic compensation but also harmonic isolation between supply and load, and voltage regulation and unbalance compensation. The effectiveness of the proposed system is verified through computer simulations and experiments
