Mitigation of harmonic distortion using shunt active power filter / Muhd Kamal Ashraf Mat Nasir

In recent years, the usage of power electronics equipments continues to increase, due to the increased usage of nonlinear loads and distributed power sources. These nonlinear loads draw non sinusoidal current from the mains to generate harmonics and reactive currents, which lead to low power factor,...
