This paper focuses on regulation of the parallel active power filter (APF) Dc Voltage bus by judicious choice of rule bases and intervals for each selected fuzzy variable of suitable fuzzy logic controller. In addition, an algorithm describes the main steps for designing an FLC that has any number of rules with direct application to the APF capacitor voltage regulation. Where their simulation, by MATLAB, applied to PV conversion chain network will be represented in the booths cases, constant and variable non-linear loads after modeling, to show the effectiveness of this kind of regulators on electrical power quality and improve the reliability of the APF on PV system. The delivered voltage of PV plant has been regulated and controlled with MPPT using P&O technique and FLC regulator after modeling of each part of the conversion chain. PV plant supplies a nonlinear load from the rectifier installed on the output of the conversion chain via a controlled power inverter. A 3 × 3 rules fuzzy regulator is implanted in the control part of the APF to examine the influence of the FLC on the produced electrical power quality. Simulation results are represented and analyzed.

This work deals on industrial electrical power quality improvement using an active power filter (APF) based on fuzzy logic controller. The studied system is a PV conversion chain used to supply linear and non-linear industrial loads of 200 kw plant. The PV station is modeled then simulated under Matlab Simulink, with standard conditions consideration in the first time then under real irradiation and sun power variation during the day hours, to obtain the true parameters design of the PV station to be able to give the needed power during the climatic conditions changing. APF parameters design and control loop structure are well studied to have an optimal control. MPPT technique is used in PV station control with the P&O algorithm. Also PV panel fault diagnosis has been done by using alarm for fault indicator and protection over under power. Simulation results are analyzed and discussed comparison with real signals, produced by the FLUK 6001B reference source with the use of the PRS 600 and the Teledyne 3,5 GHz-40Gs/s oscilloscope as measurement instrument, to improve the effectiveness of APF on electrical power quality, THD, amelioration and harmonic minimization in the industrial installation.
