Abstract :
The definition of reactive power in three phase system under non sinusoidal situation by various methods are discussed. The effect on power factor improvement and harmonic distortion by energy storage compensation by various definitions is compared using matlab simulation. Adequate filter capacitors are designed to attain the desired power factor and to reduce the distortion factor.
