| Abstract |
Two-phase residential installations have become very common in Ecuador since different policies promptthe users to replace gas stoves and water heaters by electric appliances. The addition of a second phase tothe originally installed single-phase wiring is required to obtain 220Vrms. This fact carries an intrinsicunbalance since single- and two-phase loads coexist. In this paper a topology for an active power filteris proposed which is able of balancing of the currents leading to a balance in the active power in eachphase. This added feature does not interfere with the capability of the active power filter for reactivepower compensation. The proposed topology is tested by simulations for two-phase systems havingphase voltages with 120° and 180° of difference. |
