A Phase Shifting Technique for Harmonic Reduction in Modern Electrical Distribution Systems

Abstract:

A conventional electrical distribution system are not designs to deal with harmonics because at that time the linear load conquer the consumer demand. Over the years with growing use of nonlinear load such as personal computer can contribute to harmonics current occur on electrical distribution system. With the presence of harmonics current on electrical distribution system leads in degradation of system performance. Therefore necessary actions are needed in order to minimize harmonics effect. The predominant harmonics should be eliminated from electrical distribution system such as 5^th and 7^thof harmonics current component. The eliminating process is achieved by implementing the current phase shifting technique on new concept of modern electrical distribution system at Makmal Komputer 3, Faculty of Electrical Engineering, UiTM Pulau Pinang.
