How to scientifically configure Static Var Generators (SVGs) and Active Power Filters (APFs) in photovoltaic (PV) power plants. The power quality management of PV plants shares similarities with wind farms but has its own unique emphases. The core logic is: PV inverters are themselves harmonic sources and require reactive power support, while the grid has strict requirements for reactive powe...
The Short Summary A healthy AHF typically produces two types of noise: A low hum from the internal reactor (inductor) and cooling fans. This is normal. A high-frequency "switching" whine or buzz from the Insulated-Gate Bipolar Transistors (IGBTs). This is usually very faint. If the noise becomes loud, intrusive, or changes significantly, it is often a sign of a problem. Detailed Breakdow...
EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) testing for an Active Harmonic Filter AHF is critical and non-negotiable. An AHF(APF) is a power electronics device (like a high-frequency inverter) that injects canceling currents into a noisy electrical system. If poorly designed, it can become a significant source of electromagnetic interference (EMI) itself, disrupting other equipment. Conversely, it mu...
