Voltage harmonics in the power system can interfere with the work of equipment and reduce the quality of electrical power. This is overcome by using a Series Active Power Filter which is a three-phase Voltage Source Inverter (VSI). The artificial neural network compensation method is used as the control circuit of the Series Active Power Filter to generate a reference voltage from the harmonic distorted and unbalanced source voltage. The artificial neural network determines the amplitude of the sine and cosine components of the reference voltage. Computer simulation results show that the three-phase Series Active Power Filter with artificial neural network compensation method is effectively able to remove harmonics and produce a sinusoidal and balanced three-phase voltage that will be received by the load..
