Shunt Active Power Filter with Selective Harmonics Compensation for LV distribution grid

A Shunt Active Power Filter (SAPF) employable in a Low Voltage distribution grid four-wires model is presented. The use of this device helps to improve Power Quality compensating harmonic currents, reactive power and current unbalances of a disturbing loads. Each compensating function can be activated or disabled according to the specific requirements of the application. A selective harmonic co...

Harmonics and Reactive Power Compensation Using Shunt Hybrid Filter

The supply current is distorted by the nonlinear load such UPS, DC drives, AC drives and arc furnace. This current harmonics derates the electrical equipments. Thus the current harmonics are reduced from the supply line using Shunt Hybrid filter. The Hysteresis controller controls the active filter thus the supply current tracks the reference fundamental current extracted by the synchronous ref...

Mitigation of Switching Harmonics in Shunt Active Power Filter Based on Variable Structure Control Approach

This paper presents a novel control approach used in shunt active power filter based on variable structure control combined with Random PWM technique (RVSC) that provides robust, fast, and more favorable performance for active power filter. This control strategy is compared with two other strategies to show the effectiveness of the introduced methods; pulse width modulated proportional-integral...
