The increased non-linear loads in today’s typical home are a growing concern for utility companies. To mitigate the harmonic distortions, passive or active filters are typically used. However, with the increasing implementation of distributed generation (DG) in residential areas, using DG systems to improve the power quality is becoming a promising idea, particularly because many DG systems, such as photovoltaic (PV), wind and fuel cells, have DG-grid interfacing converters. the potential for using photovoltaic (PV) interfacing inverters to compensate the residential system harmonics is explored.

2. ABSTRACT:
• The increased non-linear loads in today’s typical home are a growing concern
for utility companies.
• To mitigate the harmonic distortions, passive or active filters are typically used.
However, with the increasing implementation of distributed generation (DG) in
residential areas, using DG systems to improve the power quality is becoming a
promising idea, particularly because many DG systems, such as photovoltaic
(PV), wind and fuel cells, have DG-grid interfacing converters.
• the potential for using photovoltaic (PV) interfacing inverters to compensate
the residential system harmonics is explored.

3. EXISTING SYSTEM:

4. EXPLANATION:
• Here the system consists of shunt active power filter, capacitor
bank and then the nonlinear load.
• Here the presence of capacitor bank unit the power factor will
be corrected.
• For a harmonic resonance compensation purpose the shut
active filter will be utilized.

5. DISADVANTAGES:
• Here the output contains more harmonics and ripples.
• The overall system efficiency will be low.
• Output voltage fluctuation will be more.
• system reliability reduced.

6. PROPOSED SYSTEM:

7. EXPLANATION:
• In proposed system using distributed generation technique which
comprises of PV system for harmonics minimization.
• The voltage at point of common coupling[PCC] will be given to the
harmonic detector circuit.
• The microcontroller will produce the control pulses using the pwm
modulator.
• Based on that pulses the inverter gate pulses will be controlled.
• Dc-Dc converter used to boost up the voltage DC voltage level.

8. ADVANTAGES:
• Output ripples can be minimized.
• Power qualities will be improved.
• With the help of line and frequency compensation the system
efficiency will be improved.
• Better harmonic compensation.
