Abstract

The study of the effect of the harmonic distortions and the power factor in a system with presence of nonlinear loads becomes crucial to the quality of electrical energy. Based on this problem, this article uses the Conservative Power Theory to evaluate parameters associated to product quality, aiming to obtain subsidies for the design of tuned passive filters focused on the reduction of harmonic distortion indexes associated with voltage and current, in addition to contribute to the reactive compensation of the electrical system under research.
