Abstract

Recently due to development in the power electronics sector, there is a tremendous increase in nonlinear loads. These nonlinear loads cause distortion in the system current and result in degrading quality of power. The poor power quality causes technical and financial losses in the system which necessitates adoption of techniques to reduce the harmonic distortion to meet IEEE-standards and improve system efficiency. As per literature, passive, active and hybrid filter techniques are implemented to mitigate the harmonics. Each has merits and demerits. Constructive reduction in current harmonics improves the life and efficiency of equipment’s also assists to improve power quality and relieves penalties imposed by utilities. In this work, an attempt is made to give a detailed approach used in the designing of harmonic filters. This study will provide a broad outline to the engineer, researcher and consultant working in the field of power quality to design filters for the case under study. The steps to design the filters are well explained with mathematical equations and examples for greater insight. To validate the performance of the filter a MATLAB/Simulink platform is utilized. The outcome of the simulation result proved that current harmonics are minimized with a substantial amount.
