Abstract- This article focuses on the Feed Forward Neural Network (FFNN) controller based on the Shunt Active Power Filter (SAPF) to reduce the harmonics of the distribution system. Electronic power loads are connected to distributed power plants using power converters, and these converters and electric power are a harmonic and active source of power that affects the operation of the power system network. The proposed method works mainly according to the capacitor power principle to maintain the DC switching power of the integrated filter and thus reduce the short response time in the event of a sudden difference in load. A complete model of the power system blocks of the proposed system was developed in MATLAB/Simulink.
