Introduction to Electronic Power Factor Correction

Many types of electronic equipment draw phase shifted distorted current from the electric utility. With the advent of power electronics in the home and office, and for illumination, this power problem has become an issue for design engineers. The many known techniques for dealing with power factor correction are scattered throughout the literature and many important topics have not been addressed in print at all. This book encapsulates that body of knowledge, forming a coherent discussion to enable the designer to understand and solve practical design problems.
