    With the rapid rise in electric vehicle (EV) adoption, the deployment of EV charging infrastructure—particularly fast-charging stations—has expanded significantly to meet growing energy demands. While fast charging offers the advantage of reduced charging time and improved user convenience, it imposes considerable stress on existing power distribution systems due to its high power and current requirements. This study investigated the impact of EV fast charging on power quality within Thailand’s distribution network, emphasizing compliance with accepted standards such as IEEE Std 519-2014. We developed a control-oriented EV-charging station model in power systems computer-aided design and electromagnetic transients, including DC (PSCAD/EMTDC), which integrates grid-side vector control with DC fast-charging (CC/CV) behavior. Active/reactive power setpoints were mapped onto (Formula presented.) current references via Park’s transformation and regulated by proportional integral (PI) controllers with sinusoidal pulse-width modulation (SPWM) to command the voltage source converter (VSC) switches. The model enabled dynamic studies across battery state-of-charge and staggered charging schedules while monitoring voltage, current, and total harmonic distortion (THD) at both transformer sides, charger AC terminals, and DC adapters. Across all scenarios, the developed control achieved grid-current THDi of <5% and voltage THD of <1.5%, thereby meeting IEEE 519-2014 limits. These quantitative results show that the proposed, implementation-ready approach maintains acceptable power quality under diverse fast-charging patterns and provides actionable guidance for planning and scaling EV fast-charging infrastructure in Thailand’s urban networks.

    The use of electric motorcycles (EMCs) is rapidly increasing because EMCs are comparable in price to internal combustion engine motorcycles (ICE motorcycles), can be charged at home, and do not cause pollution. However, using EMCs in residential electrical systems is still a new issue in Thailand, as the Thai power grid was not originally designed to support electric vehicle charging. Therefore, the effect that may occur on the electrical system of a house should be studied. In this study, the power quality when charging an EMC in a residential electrical system is investigated by considering the circuits of various electrical devices according to their actual consumption behavior. Three electric motorcycles with battery capacities of 20, 30, and 40 Ah were used to investigate the effects of charging these motorcycles through the electrical system of a house. The experiment was conducted in a laboratory that replicated the electrical system of a house, and the conditions and patterns of power consumption were identical in all three cases. The test results were considered in terms of power quality, voltage harmonics, and current power system harmonics to analyze the effects on the electrical system in each circuit and to compare the charging differences of each motorcycle model. Next, it was determined that using an EMC is more cost-effective than using an ICE motorcycle. ICE motorcycles will eventually be completely replaced by EMCs, and our research will enable informed decision-making for electric motorcycle riders, researchers, and automotive corporations.

    In the urban society of Thailand, most people use motorcycles for travelling because they can meet the manoeuvrability of travelling in short distances and save energy compared to using a car. Many people are switching to electric motorcycles (EMCs), which install EMC chargers in their residential buildings. EMC chargers are power electronic devices that may produce electrical and electromagnetic interference; therefore, it is critical to evaluate the potential influence of an EMC charger on a household electrical system and other electrical equipment before installing one. Therefore, this study examined the effects of an EMC charger on residential electrical systems with and without a photovoltaic system connection as well as on individual load types in terms of power quality. The investigation revealed that EMC charging has a direct impact on the grid system's reactive power, power factor, and current harmonics. However, when the electrical load in the system has sufficient power, it is possible to reduce the reactive power and current harmonics of the grid. The cost of electricity when an EMC is connected to a residential electrical system was also analysed to determine the metre type and charging interval suitable for Thailand.

    The use of non-linear power loads causes power system distortion or harmonic problems. When that problem occurs, it must be resolved in time. Therefore, this document presents an online power quality measurement system that can quickly notify events and information. Fast data acquisition results in the quick analysis as well. Finally, the electrical system will be solved by installing a hybrid filter that is suitable for that problem.

    The proliferation of servo drives (SD) in the industry has led to serious concerns about harmonic resonance and power quality in electrical distribution systems. This paper reported the resonance conditions of electrical systems with motor control using a small servo drive for use in CNC machines. When a large number of servo drives are combined, it results in harmonic resonance occur in the system. Resulting in the destruction of electrical equipment such as power supply, computer, CNC, or servo drive close to each other, etc. The cost of purchasing the above electrical equipment to replace the damaged ones in each month is very high. A simple passive power filter system (PPFs) design is recommended to reduced harmonic resonance. PPFs are applied to the system and the actual installation which is satisfactory and can greatly reduce the damage of electrical equipment. Finally, the factories can save money each month.

    This paper is a preliminary basis in the design, planning, and implementation of hybrid power filter systems (HPFs) for application in grid-connected solar rooftop at industrial plants beginning the planning and designing of a 260 kWp solar rooftop according to the factory roof size. Calculate total returns by using the PV system design software program to find the total kWh received per year. As the power system in this factory has a load that is sensitive to power quality and harmonics, it is necessary to design a harmonic protection system by choosing the HPFs to reduced and control the harmonics. Noise filters should be used to prevent high-frequency signals from entering the electrical system. In addition, lightning protection devices are also designed by using the bus bar to connect the system to the ground. All actions have been carried out in accordance with the designed plan and able to perform as intended.

    The ac drives which operate at a poor power factor decreases motor speed and injected large harmonic current and subra-harmonics into the supply network. The effects of harmonic and subra-harmonic that are injected into the network include overheating of transformers and motor and other instrumentation that were not designed with an insensitivity to harmonic in the supply. Thus, some form of harmonic and subra-harmonic mitigation is required. The PQube3 compact instrument is simply the best power monitor and real-time sensor and it records harmonic and supra-harmonics of AC drive for dry-milling system. To reduce the harmonic current and subra-harmonic injected in the network. The Hybrid Power Filter System(HPFs) are chosen because they can solve this problem with the least cost and the same effect as active filter. The results show that the association of HPFs is a very good solution for harmonic and subra-harmonic problems.

    This paper proposes a reduced 3<sup>rd</sup> harmonic current of server power supply units which effects of heating neutral cables and transformer. The data centers require the operation of many parallel-connected switch mode power supply on the same bus and transformer. Such a system significantly increases the high neutral current and power quality problems on the distribution network. Finally, using the Hybrid Power Filter System(HPFs) to solve this problem, the results can reduce distortion in current. The HPF is the combination of Active Power Filter (APF) and Passive Power Filter (PPF) which mostly use for reducing 3<sup>rd</sup>, 5<sup>th</sup> currents and power quality improvements of the system.

    This paper presents a simple of active power filters (APF) design techniques to minimize harmonic distortion and improve power factor caused by a harmonic source such as variable-frequency drives (VFDs) using 12-pulse converters. A method is finding the maximum rating of active power filter to minimize voltage and current harmonic distortion at a load bus where it is desired to maintain the displacement power factor at a desired level constraining the compensator value, which would create resonance condition. The water treatment plants require the operation of many parallel-connected VFDs on the same bus, such as a system significantly increases the power quality problems. The purpose of APF is sufficient to eliminate the harmonic currents, balance currents of the ac line input and increase power factor. The results show that the APF are a very appropriate solution for most typical harmonic problems, unbalanced current and power factor correction.
