Power Quality Improvement Using Switched Capacitor Compensation With Reduce Harmonics System

Abstract: The electric utility industry and consumers of electrical energy are facing new challenges for cutting the electric energy cost, improving energy utilization, enhancing electric energy efficiency, improving supply waveform power quality, reducing any safety hazards to personnel and protecting electronic sensitive computer and automatic data processing networks. The growing use of nonlinear type electric loads causes a real challenge to any power quality and harmonic mitigation for electric utilities around the world, especially in the existing era of unregulated electricity market where competition, supply quality, security and reliability are now key issues for any economic survival. Network pollution is characterized by the nonlinear electric load ability to distortion modify and change the voltage and current waveform RMS due to its inherent nonlinearity.
