| Summary: | In this paper, we propose a new Zero Direct Power Control (ZDPC) technique for active compensation of harmonics and reactive power, using shunt active power filter (SAPF), based on cancellation of instantaneous active and reactive power disturbances by comparison with their zero references. To separate harmonic and fundamental components of the line voltage and current a highly selective filter (HSF) has been used. Depending on the power errors and line voltage vector position, a switching table produces the appropriate control vectors leading to the active and reactive power variation required to reach the zero power references, even under grid voltage unbalanced and distorted conditions. The experimental validation of the proposed ZDPC has been performed. The results are compared to other recent techniques to demonstrate the superiority and feasibility of the proposed strategy.
