Abstract :
In this paper a comparison between two active power filters is presented; both filters, the ARD and the HVC, are used for the active resonance damping in a distribution line. The ARD is an active power filter whose control strategy is typical for the resonance damping so that the harmonic voltage compensation is a welcome by-product; on the contrary the aim of the HVC is the shunt harmonic voltage compensation. The numerical results, obtained by simulating a radial distribution network previously studied by others, demonstrate the HVC is an effective solution for both the harmonic compensation and the active resonance damping.
