description

Conventional LC filters cannot compensate effectively harmonics due to non-linear loads in a grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) system. Thus, active power filters (APF) are introduced due to its characteristics and performances, for compensation of harmonics from non-linear loads in the grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) system. This work presents a three-phase voltage-fed shunt active power filter implementation to mitigate the harmonics in which the filter control system focuses on generating reference source current for compensating harmonic effects from non-linear loads. Furthermore, the developed model is verified with an experimental data from a nonlinear load.
