Abstract

The effectiveness of different filtering methodologies to eliminate voltage and current harmonic distortion at the point of common coupling of a simple system was examined. Sensitive analysis was carried out to analyze the harmonics generated by an adjustable speed drive (ASD) connected to the system feeders. The constructed ASD model was tested by varying its converter firing angle. The analysis suggested that both notch and reactance one-port filters tolerated change within 5% range without violating total harmonic distortion current (THDI) and total harmonic distortion voltage (THDV) limits.
