Enhancement of Power Quality Using Advanced Series Active Power Filters

Manoj siva kumar, P.Rayalakshmi

This paper presents the d various issues related to the power quality. The interest in power quality is explained in the context of a number of wider developments in power engineering such as deregulation of the electricity industry, increased customer-demand. Two power quality disturbances are discussed in detail: voltage dips and harmonic distortion. Shunt, hybrid and advanced series active power filters are described showing their compensation characteristics and principles of operation. The performance of the advanced series active power filters carried out in MATLAB/SIMULINK environment.
