This paper makes a technical analysis of the converter’s topologies that are conventionally employed in three-phase three-wire in increasing the power factor and harmonics eliminating,namely unit power factor(UPF)and...
Recently, the number of system interconnection of the renewable energy such as PV (photovoltaic) generation system and wind power generation system has been increasing drastically. A distribution system with the dis...
Power quality is one of the major concerns among consumers and electric utility companies. CUPS (custom power systems) devices are used to improve the quality of power and enhance the reliability of the power supply...
In a smart grid, electric loads are supplied by various DC (direct current) power sources, such as solar cells or batteries. On the other hand, traditional AC (alternating current) loads like a directly connected ...
A distribution grid is generally characterized by a high R/X (resistance/reactance) ratio and it is radial in nature. By design, a distribution grid system is not an active network, and it is normally designed in su...
This paper reveals new contributions to the analysis and development of devices for harmonic distortion mitigation. Considering the sequential distribution of harmonic currents, zero-sequence components could be dimin...
In order to provide power quality monitoring activities with metrological certification, a DAS (data acquisition system) has been designed, realized and characterized. The system allows acquisition on tri-phases plu...
The purpose of the paper is to develop a solution for application of PV (photovoltaic) generators in MV (medium voltage) distribution system without unacceptable voltage changes due to drops of PV power output. Th...
In the future, the power quality will decrease by the introduction of a lot of renewable energy sources. The topic of this research is a new method of operation of PCS (power conditioning systems) in the future dist...
Distribution networks face an increasing penetration of solar PV (photovoltaic) and small WTG (wind turbine generator) as well as other forms of micro-generation. To this scenario, one must add the dissemination o...
