Abstract

In the power system, the power factor of the grid is low due to the influence of load and transmission equipment. In the face of a large number of reactive loads in the power grid, compensating reactive power and suppressing harmonic current can effectively improve the power factor of the power grid, reduce damage to electrical equipment, and improve power supply efficiency. This paper first introduces the reactive power compensation in detail, and combines with the fluorescent lamp circuit for analysis. Then combined with the recent harmonic suppression method to analyze the advantages and disadvantages, the role and principle of harmonic suppression are explained in detail.
