Abstract

This paper presents the obtained experimental results with a single-phase experimental prototype of a Load Compensation Active Conditioner, sLCAC. The sLCAC is composed by a series – parallel combination of active power filters, and its main objective is the global conditioning of a load against harmonic distortion. On the one hand, to isolate the load voltage vL from the harmonics in the supply voltage vS, as well as to regulate it to the nominal value. On the other hand, to improve the supply current iS, compensating the harmonic and reactive components of the load current iL. An experimental prototype has been implemented, and the obtained results are presented to support the performance of the proposed design
