Power quality problems such as variation of reactive power consumption and distorted current injection in distributed generation system can be compensated by a single-phase conditioner. The proposed conditioner works in feed forward mode and placed in parallel with the PV-inverters in the distributed generation system. A simple current extraction method is applied and an operating algorithm of the...
The Improved Power Quality AC-DC Converters (IPQCs) provides enhanced power quality in terms of improved power factor and reduced Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) at the utility interface. This paper addresses comparison of power factor correction techniques for high frequency isolation based single phase Buck-Boost AC-DC Cuk Converter, which consists of only one switch resulting in reduced THD and...

The unified power quality conditioner (UPQC) is a combination of back to back connected shunt and series active power filters (APFs) to a common DC link voltage, which compensates voltage and current based distortions, independently. Generally the power conditioning devices are designed for complete compensation, irrespective of the requirement/priority. In this paper flexibility of selective compensation...
This paper presents a three-phase Active Power Conditioner to improve power quality in microgrids based on renewable energy. A microgrid is a weak electrical grid which can be easily subject to disturbances. The Active Power Conditioner (APC) presented in this paper acts as an interface between renewable energy sources and the AC bus of a microgrid and uses an improved control strategy, which makes...
In this paper, a neural network based reference current computation method for active power filter (APF) control under non-ideal mains voltage with different load condition is proposed. The neural network controller has been designed to extract fundamental frequency components from non-sinusoidal and unbalanced currents. These fundamental frequency components will be used as unit templates. The APF...
Distribution system has witnessed numerous problems due to concentrated power loading in cities. Stability, reliability, peak demand, poor power quality, unbalanced loading are some of the major issues besides handling of large AC networks. This paper proposes an insertion of DC power dam connected between transmission and distribution system, through bidirectional voltage source converter (VSC) both...
UPQC is the powerful tool to settle the power quality problem. This paper presents a novel control strategy of UPQC. It can be used in the system that voltage and current are unbalanced or/and with harmonics. Only the voltages and the currents measured are used in the control, it avoids the transformation like Park transformation of dq0 theory which is based on the instantaneous reactive theory. Simulation...
