Power Quality Analysis of Harmonics in3.5kVA Single Phase Generator using Electronic Filter in Matlab/Simulink Environment.

Abstract

The aim of this workis to investigate the harmonic content of nonlinear loads connected to 3.5kVA power supply source and to mitigate the effects using electronic filter (double tuned low pass active shunt filter).The presence of harmonics was investigated by collecting data from the power source, 3.5 kVA using „Owon Oscilloscope‟ metering device. The data was then processed by means of Fourier analysis into harmonic spectrums. Mitigate the harmonics found in this power source a double tuned low-pass active shunt filter was design from discrete elements (resistors, capacitors and inductors) and implemented in the MATLAB/SIMULINK environment.The result obtained for VTHD before and after the simulation procedure using the series active passive filter was higher than the expected IEEE standard of 5%; while the result obtained using the double tuned low pass active shunt filter then after simulation gave a satisfactory result less than the expected IEEE standard of 5% after simulation.
