Abstract:

 Maintaining correct power quality is being a very important task within the operation of the facility. It’s compelling by the ability quality standards (IEEE-519) to limit the harmonics distortion at intervals the suitable vary. The excessive use of power electronics devices in distribution system has evolved the matter of power quality leading to harmonics generation & in substantial economic losses. Filters approaches to be the effective & economical technique for harmonics mitigation. This paper presents the method of using FPGA controller in the place of Hysteresis current controller for controlling the shunt active filter to mitigate the harmonics in power systems. Harmonics identification methodology and compensation management adopted are mentioned.

Keywords:

    Field Programmable Gate Array, Harmonics, Shunt Active power filter.
