Survey of active power line conditioning methodologies

Active power-line conditioning (APLC) is a concept that can potentially correct network distortion caused by power electronic loads by injecting equal-but-opposite distortion at carefully selected points in a network. Results are presented of an extensive literary survey on the subject of APLCs. Thirty-seven key publications are identified and reviewed. Existing and proposed line-conditioning methodologies are compared, and a list of the advantages and limitations of each is presented
