Abstract
In this paper it is shown that the converter-based Power Quality Manag er is a viable solution to power quality problems on radial lines, It is capable of harmonic isolation, improving voltage regulation and fli cker compensation simultaneously, These functions can also be implemen ted independently, The Power Quality Manager is a hybrid device compri sing passive components and a converter, The converter power rating is lower than that required by an equivalent active filter or converter- based Static Var Compensator.
