Abstract

This paper presents the design of Unified Power Quality Conditioner which is the integration of series and shunt active power filters. The main purpose of UPQC is to mitigate power quality issues like voltage imbalance, current harmonics etc... For controlling the UPQC fuzzy logic controller is used which also enhances the fast response of the UPQC. The UPQC used in the distribution system is simulated using MATLAB software and obtained results shows that UPQC is the promising solution which deals with both current and voltage imperfections and also THD is measured.
