  • Abstract
    This paper presents a general definition of nonactive current/power and the implementation for a shunt compensation system. This definition is universal for different loads, such as nonperiodic, unbalanced or single phase, and also flexible in terms of the compensation results. Unity power factor, pure sinusoidal source current, or zero nonactive power supply from the utility can be achieved according to different compensation requirements. In addition, the corresponding current rating and energy storage requirements of the compensation system are also presented.
