PASSIVE FILTER
Passive filters are used for different voltage levels. Harmon-
ics is removed by using series and parallel resonant filter in
Passive filters. They consist of passive element like
ResistorInductors and Capacitors. So they are called Passive Fig.1 Basic Scheme of Shunt Active filter
filter. These filters provide low impedance path to remove
harmonic current. Series passive filter is connected in series
with the load ,Shunt passive filter connected in parallel with
the load. Passive filters are not as effective compared to Active
filters.

Advantages of Active Filter • Gain and Frequency Adjustment
• Reduced Size
• Voltage Regulation • Reactive Power Compensation
2
• Single filter to eliminate harmonics
