Abstract

In order to compensate more reactive power and lower the power level of the active power filter (APF), a hybrid filter system based on a combination of an APF and a thyristor switched capacitor (TSC) is presented. This system combines the good dynamic compensation performance of the APF and higher power level of the TSC. It can eliminate harmonics and compensate the power factor effectively in power distribution systems. Simulations show that this topology has rapidly dynamic response and stability. And the feasibility and validity of this system has been proved.
