Advances in Electrical and Electronic Engineering; Vol. 17, Núm. 3; pp. 262-26913361376https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12585/9224Discussion and mathematical proof on necessary and sufficient conditions for the application of the p-q theory for compensating the harmonic currents consumed by non-linear load using a shunt active filter are presented. These conditions over instantaneous active and reactive powers were not addressed before and must be considered on the design of new control strategies based on p-q theory. Theoretical demonstration is proposed and an application example with simulations results is used to validate the theoretical results. © 2019 ADVANCES IN ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONIC ENGINEERING.Recurso electrónicoapplication/pdfenghttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/info:eu-repo/semantics/article10.15598/aeee.v17i3.3415Active filter controlHarmonic compensationP-q theoryinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAtribución-NoComercial 4.0 InternacionalUniversidad Tecnológica de BolívarRepositorio UTB371049763005691956410066032526336507461131
