Abstract

This paper presents mitigation of power quality problems introduced by nonlinear loads. Through the  expansion of modern  industrial technology enormous number of non-linear loads are used in power system, which causes harmonic distortion. At the same time the power quality and safe operation becomes  substandard. Therefore alleviation of harmonics is very essential under this situation. A Hybrid power filter constituting a series active filter and a passive filter coupled in parallel with the load is proposed to improve the power quality. To validate the developed theoretical analysis, the control strategy is verified by means of an experimental prototype using Multisim software. Shunt, hybrid and series active power filters are described showing their compensation characteristics and principles of operation. The results to verify the effectiveness of the proposed control algorithm is presented
