Abstract :
Based on a new definition of nonactive current/power, this paper presents the application of a parallel active filter for the compensation of nonperiodic currents. Analysis of the compensation characteristics required for a variety of nonperiodic currents such as those associated with arc furnaces is presented. In addition, the corresponding current rating and energy storage requirements of the compensator are also presented.
