Summary:Recent developments in energy conversion, including ever increasing use of controlled elements, have created new aspects with regard to power factor considerations. This paper describes and analyzes a novel approach to the reactive and distortive powers that characterize nonlinear control elements. It has been proved that these powers may be neutralized when using similar nonlinear elements which, however, are suitably interconnected.
