Filters are basically LC circuits whose L and C
parameters are selects such that complete LC circuit of the
Fig. 2. The recorded current wave form filter resonates at a particular frequency. AC harmonic filters
reduce the harmonic content in the AC network to acceptable
limits. Shunt filters are connected between power line and
earth. The design of shunt filters is based
on the resonance phenomenon R,L,C series and parallel
circuits.
ilSinEle- Tuned Filter
It is a single RLC circuit tuned to the frequency of
one particular harmonic. A LC circuits resonates at particular
frequency.
