Abstract :
The paper presents experimental results related to the application of series inductors and detuned filters in different industrial power systems where AC Variable Speed Drives based on induction motors and frequency converters are used. The aim is to validate through experimental results part of the equipment designed, developed and produced within a small-medium enterprise for harmonics reduction and power factor correction.
