Power Quality Solutions: The Role of AHF and SVG Modern power systems face increasing power quality issues such as harmonic distortion, voltage fluctuations, and reactive power imbalance. These problems can damage equipment and reduce system efficiency. Traditional solutions like capacitor banks and passive filters have limitations in speed, accuracy, and harmonic adaptability. ...
The Definition of Active Harmonic Filters (AHF) An Active Harmonic Filter (AHF) is an important device that improves power quality. Its main jobs are to reduce harmonic distortion in power systems and to adjust reactive power as needed. The AHF connects to the grid in parallel and performs real-time detection of harmonic components in the grid. A power converter creates a compensation current. Thi...
An Active Harmonic Filter (AHF) is a dynamic power quality management device. It based on power electronics technology, primarily designed to eliminate harmonic currents and compensate reactive power in electrical systems. Its core operation revolves around real-time detection, calculation, and dynamic compensation of harmonic distortions. So what situation do we need this equipment? Metallurgy In...
Both Passive Power Factor Correction(PPFC) and Active Power Factor Correction(APFC) are used to improve power factor and reduce reactive power, but they differ in complexity, cost, and performance. Passive Power Factor Correction (PPFC) Method: Uses passive components (capacitors, reactors, or filters) to compensate for reactive power. Types of Passive PFC: A. Capacitor Ba...
Harmonic Distortion Explained: Dangers of High Levels & How to Protect Your Systems Harmonic distortion is a hidden threat in modern electrical systems. While it doesn't get the same attention as power outages or surges, excessive harmonic distortion can quietly damage equipment, reduce energy efficiency, and cost businesses thousands. Understanding what harmonic distortion is, why it happens,...
Analysis of 3 Different Power Factor Correction Solutions: Capacitors, SVG, and AHF In today’s industrial and commercial environments, ensuring power quality is more than just good practice—it’s a necessity. Poor power quality can lead to equipment malfunctions, increased utility costs, and downtime. One major aspect of power quality is the power factor—a measure of ho...
As the world accelerates its transition toward low-carbon and sustainable energy systems, the integration of renewable energy—such as solar, wind, and hydropower—has become a central pillar of national energy strategies. However, this rapid shift has introduced new challenges to the stability and reliability of power systems. One of the most critical concerns is power quality&md...
1. Current Transformer (CT) A Current Transformer is an instrument transformer used to measure alternating current (AC) by stepping down high currents to a lower, measurable value. Key Functions: Current Measurement: Steps down high primary current (e.g., 1000A) to a standardized secondary current (e.g., 5A or 1A) for meters and relays. Isolation: Provides galvanic isolation be...
