The paper presents the analysis of harmonic distortion when non-linear load is connected in different phases of power system with STATCOM for singly excited induction generator system with wind turbine as prime mover. Now-a-days due to the drastically increased in use of non linear loads causes many power quality problems in power system network. Those problems are classified as reactive power problems, harmonics, voltage sags and swells. Out of these problems harmonic problems are major concern. Custom power devices proposed for mitigation of power quality in network. For compensation of harmonic, static compensator (STATCOM) is used. The paper presents the compensation of harmonic power quality issues using STATCOM for the system with singly-excited induction generator feeding non-linear load connected in different phases. STATCOM is controlled using synchronous reference frame theory to produce pulses to switches of STATCOM sensing the input parameters. Proposed concept was developed using MATLAB/SIMULINK software and results are presented for non-linear load connected in different phases of the power system. THD analysis was shown for source current and load current for different cases.

In this paper, the harmonic distortion for Self-Excited Induction Generator (SEIG) and an isolated synchronous generator (ISG) under non-linear load during steady state conditions are analyzed. The voltage and current harmonics distortion for both generators are calculated using the transfer function method in frequency domain for SEIG and phasor diagram method for ISG. This analysis is done independently one by one component for all harmonic components appear. The analysis results for both generators are verified to the laboratory test results. For loading with the same non-linear load to both generators, the harmonics distortion on the stator windings of SEIG was smaller than compare ISG. In addition, the harmonic distortion effects on other loads connected to PCC point of SEIG was lower than the other loads connected to ISG.

Abstract: The use of equipment with a high non-linear load causes a decrease in the quality of power (Power Quality) at Malang City Point Apartment. Power quality analysis is an important requirement in the electrical system and needs special attention to save energy and costs. Savings can be achieved by reducing or even eliminating losses resulting from the use of non-linear loads. This thesis aims to present the results of an analysis of power quality conditions at Malang City Point Apartments. This analysis includes voltage, current, voltage and current imbalance, power factor, current THD and measured voltage. The system is designed using Web - Based Power Quality Meter (PM 5110) as a measurement tool, then the results are analyzed and compared with existing standards to evaluate power quality in Malang City Point Apartments. Among the various power quality problems measured, it was found that the main problems of power quality in Malang City Point Apartments were the occurrence of overvoltages and current harmonic distortion. So it is necessary to do repairs on this to overcome the overvoltage by reducing the operation of equipment that has a large load and repairing neutral conductors. Furthermore, to reduce the system harmonics, it is designed by designing a single tuned passive filter and simulated using the ETAP software version 16.0.0.

Beban non linier yang belum berbentuk gelombang sinusoidal telah terdistorsi oleh distorsi harmonisa arus. Beban non linier merupakan salah satu penyebab timbulnya distorsi yang dapat mengakibatkan kualitas daya listrik semakin buruk. Paper ini membahas hasil simulasi penggunaan filter tunggal yang disetel untuk mengurangi distorsi yang disebabkan oleh beban non linier akibat personal computer dan printer untuk pencetakan. Pengukuran menggunakan alat power quality analyzer fluke. Hasil pengukuran terhadap 4 merk PC yang berbeda menunjukan bahwa nilai beban non linier yang dihasilkan mengalami penurunan. Beban personal komputer merk A dari THDi sebesar 120,7 % menurun menjadi 110,8% , merk B dari THDi sebesar 121,9% menjadi 109,9 %, merk C dari THDi sebesar 150,1% menurun menjadi 100,2 %, merk D dari THDi sebesar 176,2% menurun menjadi 104,1 %. Penurunan total harmonic distorsion arus setelah direduksi sebesar 0,8 – 1 %. Penggunaan filter berhasil menurunkan nilai THDi. Non-linear loads that have not been in the form of sinusoidal waves have been distorted by current harmonic distortion. Non-linear loads, one of the causes of distortion can cause the quality of electric power to get worse. Research on the simulation method uses a single filter as a filter that is adjusted to reduce distortion caused by non-linear loads using personal computers and printers for printing machines. Where the measurement uses a Fluke Power quality analyzer, the resulting non-linear load value is obtained on non-linear loads with personal computer loads brand A has a THDi of 120.7% decreasing to 110.8%, brand B THDi of 121.9% becomes 109.9%, the C THDi brand by 150.1% decreased to 100.2%, the D THDi brand by 176.2% decreased to 104.1% where the decrease in the total harmonic current distortion after reduction was 0.8 - 1%. The use of a filter was successful in lowering the THDi value.

DSTATCOM is one among FACTS controllers to reduce harmonic effect in power system. Presence of non-linear loads induces harmonics to source components which in-turn affects other sensitive loads. Parallel custom devices share the compensating currents and as a result stress on individual custom device reduces. This paper presents power quality improvement using parallel DSTATCOM in power distribution system. The parallel DSTATCOM are controlled with a common single control scheme using synchronous reference frame theory. Proposed concept was implemented with MATLAB/SIMULINK software and results were discussed considering different loading conditions of the proposed system like balanced case non-linear load and unbalanced case non-linear load conditions.


The increased use of electricity-dependent devices has posed many concerns to the power industry. The devices like electric motors, printers, generators, transformers, computers, etc are widely used in today’s world. The electronic devices increase the non-linear load to the power system which leads to the power quality (PQ) issues by which the electrical devices may get affected with fluctuation causing equipment failure, power system failure, etc. In order to resolve the PQ related issues and harmonics mitigation occurred due to nonlinear load power filters were introduced in decades ago. This paper deals with the review of existing researches that uses power filters and other methods for power quality improvement. The paper also gives gaps and the current state of the art in the recent researches which have futuristic scope in the research domain.

This paper presents the effect of total harmonic distortion (THD) in power factor correction (PFC) at non-linear load. This study focuses on the relationship between THD and PFC. This is beacuse,the power factor affects THD. This occurs in power system as we have variety of loads, i. e linear load or non-linear load. The variety of loads will influence the sinusoidal waveform, which comes out from harmonic distortion. Thus, based on this study, we can compare the effective method in improving the power factor as it will not disturb the performance of THD. The focus of study is on the single phase load, where the voltage restriction is 240 V.  The analysis will  only focus on the consumer, which depends on the variety of non-linear load. Besides, the parameters for analysis are based on the percentage of THD and the value of power factor. The instrument for measuring the parameter is based on power factor correction device or technique. On the other hand, the method that was used for this study is based on simulation which incorporated the Multisim software. At the end of ths study, we can choose the most effective method that can be used to improve the power factor correction without disturbing the THD.
