Abstract :
The impact of voltage harmonics on a power system can be minimized by using an active power line conditioner (APLC) to inject distortion-canceling currents. This paper presents a new method that is based on evolutionary computation to decide where an APLC should be placed for maximum performance. The simulation result verifies the validity of the new method.
