Harmonic mitigation in three phase three wire system using shunt active power filter

This paper deals with the performance of shunt active power filter in a three phase three wire system. The control strategy is based on Instantaneous power theory and the performances are analyzed with different loads to see its effectiveness with the changing loads. The analysis is done in MATLAB/Simulink environment and the capabilities of the shunt active power filter like harmonic mitigation and load balancing applications are verified with the results obtained.
