REACTORS FOR HVDC APPLICATIONS

SMOOTHING REACTORS
Smoothing reactors are connected in series with HVDC transmission line to reduce the harmonics / ripples as well as for improving the system stability. These reactors are necessary in order to smooth the direct current wave shape to reduce losses and improve system performance
FILTER REACTORS
HVDC filter reactors are installed on DC side as well as ac side of the HVDC converter. AC filter reactors provide reactive power as well as reduce harmonic currents. DC filters are installed on the line side of the HVDC smoothing reactor in shunt with the DC line & function of DC filters is to
further reduce the harmonic currents on DC line..
Quality Power has developed Smoothing
Reactors and Filter reactors for various national grids
for their installation in HVDC system.
