Abstract

DC underground traction systems are a powerful source of harmonic distortion, and so, suitable corrective actions have to be taken. For the design of these corrective actions simulation has proved to be a very useful tool. In this paper, the simulation of an active filter for the reduction of the current harmonic distortion of an underground traction system is presented.
