Abstract :
This paper presents a novel converter transformer, T-ADZ, based upon the special autotransformer ADZ. This new topology allows the mitigation of voltage imbalance as well as reducing noncharacteristic harmonics produced by power converters connected to an unbalanced voltage supply. EMTP simulation and experimental results drawn from a laboratory prototype illustrate its good performance
