Mitigation of harmonic distortion using active power filter

Bujal, Rose Adila (2008) Mitigation of harmonic distortion using active power filter. [Student Project] (Unpublished)

Abstract

Power quality now becomes a major concern especially for commercial and industrial customers. Harmonics distortion produced by the non-linear loads will lead to lots of power quality problems. This paper presents a study on harmonics distortion in an electrical distribution system. The first part of the study is to analyse the real data from UiTM (Pahang Campus). Reliable Power Meter (RPM) Software is used to analyse the harmonics distortion. The second part is to simulate the harmonics distortion theoretically using the 13-bus IEEE Industrial Distribution System circuit. The Power System CAD (PSCAD) 4.2.1 Software (educational edition) is used for this purposed. Active Power Filter (APF) is used as a method of to alleviate the harmonic distortion.
