This paper presents an implementation of hybrid active power filter for decreasing the distortions in currents in a single-phase and three phase systems. In this method, the active power filter is injecting equal but opposite current to mitigate the distortion current shape the supply current to a sinusoidal form and in phase with the supply voltage. To reduce switching stress, losses a single-switch parallel active power filter is used. for removing t he high order and low order harmonics a parallel active power filter and a passive filter is connected. The passive filter uses simple LC configuration; while the parallel active filter uses a single-switch topology typically used in boost rectifier circuit. Theoretical, simulation results are presented for the single and three-phase systems with feeding non-linear loads.
