文摘This paper investigates the usage of passive harmonic filters to mitigate harmonic distortions when two resonant points are present in a system caused by shunt capacitors used for power factor correction and bus voltage regulation.

Passive harmonic filters are designed to reduce harmonic distortions at the PCC （point of common coupling） to fall within the IEEE 519 harmonic voltage and current limits caused by parallel resonance.
