This dissertation focuses on active power filters, namely the Three-Phase Three-Wire Shunt Active Power Filter. The paper aims to perform an in-depth investigation on the performance of the filter and examines whether it can be utilized to increase the power quality of distribution systems. The paper begins by discussing the main sources of harmonic pollution in a power distribution. The study then examines the research discussing topics likes shunt, hybrid and series active power filters. This is followed by an analysis of three phase shunt active power filters, and this section discusses topics like system configuration, interface reactors, and hysteresis control techniques. The paper then uses the MATLAB environment, SIMULINK, andrnSimpowerSystems Blockset toolboxes to carry out the proposed three-phase three-wire shunt active power filter. The paper then discusses all of the findings in great detail.
