This paper presents an approach for assessment of power quality parameters using analysis of fundamental and harmonic voltage and current waveforms. Park transformation technique has been utilized for the analysis in three-phase system, which has reduced the computational effort to a great extent. Contributions of fundamental and harmonic components in power system voltage and current signals have been assessed separately. An algorithm has been developed to calculate the power quality parameters from online signals. This algorithm has been simulated for a radial system, and the results have been compared with that obtained from a standard FFT-based system. The results are seen to be in good agreement with that of the standard system.

In this work, a Three phase Transformerless Hybrid Series Active Power Filter (THSeAF) based on Sliding Mode Control (SMC) is proposed to mitigate the voltage and current distortions present in an electrical distribution systems (EDS). A Sliding Mode Controller is designed by controlling the parameters present on the load side as well as source side of the system. Three separate voltage source converters (VSC) are used. The mod1elling of the system is derived by considering a single-phase system by using state space analysis. The frequency response characteristics have been derived for the single-phase system and the stability of the system is studied. It is observed that the system has good stability margins when the SMC is applied at the source side compared to load side. Simulation results obtained in PSCAD/EMTDC v4.6 have been observed for power quality issues like voltage sags, voltage swells, voltage distortions, voltage unbalances and their concurrent occurrence. The approach of stationary reference frame was used for source side control and PQ theory is used for load side control. It is observed that the proposed controller works well in obtaining a stable and constant load voltage during these power quality issues. The difference in settling time observed is around 4 ms for the load side and source side control. The THD present in the load voltage is near about 1%. The SMC is found to be robust in obtaining a constant load voltage with low THD and an improved power factor.

Power Quality Conditioner

This paper proposes a modified control strategy for unified Power Quality conditioner to alleviate voltage and current abnormalities in three phase system. Renewable source integration and nonlinear loads depreciates Power Quality of the system. Active Power Filters play a paramount role in alleviating PQ disturbances. To deal with current imperfections and reactive power compensation, modified dq controller is proposed for shunt controller. ANFIS-dq control strategy is proposed for Series Controller to suppress voltage imperfections Photovoltaic unit is optimally connected at DC link of UPQC for supporting controlling action and to deliver real power Proposed optimal renewable source integrated UPQC performance is studied with traditional PI and ANFIS controller. MATLAB / SIMULINK platform is used for analyzing proposed system performance.

<p>This paper presents the adaptive filtering based least mean square control<br />algorithm for distribution static compensator (DSTATCOM) in three-phase<br />grid tied system for linear/non-linear load, to solve the power quality<br />problems caused by solid-state equipment and devices. This is shown that the<br />active component weights obtained from the load currents in the LMS<br />adaptive filter are used to produce the reference currents and subsequently<br />produces the switching pulses for VSC of the compensator. The complete<br />circuit along with the adaptive technique and diode bridge rectifier type nonlinear load is simulated in Matlab/Simulink software. Initially the circuit was<br />simulated for a three phase linear inductive load. Later it was simulated for a<br />rectifier load connected at PCC with a disconnection of the load of any phase<br />for a short duration of time. It is concluded that the harmonics are found<br />within the limit. The harmonics and power results for both types of loads are<br />compared in a tabular form. Hence this three phase system with<br />DSTATCOM improves the power quality in the three-phase distribution<br />network therefore, serves to provide harmonics reduction, load balancing and<br />regulating the terminal voltage at the point of common coupling (PCC).</p>

This paper deals with the diagnosis of induction motors (IM) with the so-called motor current signature analysis (MCSA). The MCSA is one of the most efficient techniques for the detection and the localization of electrical and mechanical failures, in which faults become apparent by harmonic components around the supply frequency. This paper presents a summary of the most frequent faults and its consequences on the stator current spectrum of an IM. A three-phase IM model was used for simulation taking into account in one hand the normal healthy operation and in the other hand the broken rotor bars, the shorted turns in the stator windings, the voltage unbalance between phases of supply and the abnormal behavior of load. The MCSA is used by many authors in literature for faults detection of IM. The major contribution of this work is to prove the efficiency of this diagnosis methodology to detect different faults simultaneously, in normal and abnormal functional conditions. The results illustrate good agreement between both simulated and experimental results.

This paper presents the implementation of a maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithm in a multilevel three-phase photovoltaic (PV) system using the ripple correlation control (RCC) method. Basically, RCC adopts the inherent oscillations of PV current and voltage as perturbation, and it has been predominantly used for single-phase configurations, where the oscillations correspond to the 2nd order harmonics. The implementation of an RCC-MPPT algorithm in a three-phase system has not been presented yet in the literature. In this paper, the considered three-phase three-level converter is a three-level flying capacitor (FC) inverter. The proffered RCC method uses the 3rd harmonic components of PV current and voltage for the estimation of the voltage derivative of the power dPpv/dVpv (or current, dIpv/dVpv), compelling the PV array to operate at or very close to the maximum power point. The analysis and calculation of the low-frequency PV current and voltage ripple harmonic components in the three-phase flying capacitor inverter is presented first, with reference to centered carrier-based three-level PWM. The whole grid-connected PV generation scheme has been implemented by MATLAB/Simulink, and detailed numerical simulations verified the effectiveness of the control method in both steady-state and dynamic conditions, emulating different sun irradiance transients.
