Abstract
Because of The low complexity of passive filters (PF) compared to the active filter, their high efficiency, their ease of installation and their different topologies,theyremained the devices required in the power system. In order to minimize the harmonic distortion produced by the large industrial loads, harmonic filters should, therefore, be designed with the utmost rigor, because a poorly designed filter may amplify the undesired harmonics. The determination of the PFcomponents requires both adetailed study ofthe power system parameters, which influence the efficiency and economic viability of the harmonic compensation and the reactive power required by the load.This article studies the use of the Cuckoo optimization algorithm (COA), in order to designpassive filters with an improved power quality and reduced cost. The optimal filters are connected concurrently to the power system so that each individual Harmonic distortion respects the recommended limits. The results show that the optimized (PF) is effective, and has a lower cost.
