Abstract

This chapter initially presents an overview of the power quality issues. Then three common international standards relating to the voltage and current distortion are introduced. In order to provide a cost-effective three-phase shunt current quality compensator with resonances prevention capability, different hybrid active filter (HAPF) topologies have been compared and discussed in detail. Among them, one HAPF topology is chosen for in-depth investigation and further study in this book because it can offer the lowest cost, size, and weight, and has potential to provide dynamic reactive power compensation. Owning to the limitations of this HAPF, this book aims to provide their corresponding solutions. Finally, the organization of this book is introduced at the end of this chapter.
