Abstract

Industrialization, Globalization and domestic loads are increasing day by day, due to which power required for all this is also increasing. In order to fulfill this requirement, numbers of sources are used to generate the required power. Some sources generate DC. For connecting them with the grid several types of converters are used. Usage of power electronic devices results in various problems regarding power quality in the system. Maintaining standard power quality is also important, therefore in this paper we are highlighting the major concern on one of the crucial power quality factor named Harmonics, with its causes, major effects and some mitigation techniques.
