The invention comprises an electrical system apparatus for processing three-phase power, comprising: a first, second, and third inductor connected on a first end to a first common magnetic field carrying plate and connected on a second end to a second common magnetic field carrying plate, where the three inductors are equidistant from each other and/or equidistance from a central axis, which yields an equal coupling common mode inductor-capacitor based filtering apparatus. Generally, inductor placement symmetry and/or equal magnetic field permeabilities between each pair of the three inductors balances magnetic fields within each inductor at each point of time, where each of the three inductors is connected to a single phase of three-phase power, the three phases offset from each other by one-third of a period.
