Abstract
A series connectable power flow module is for connection to a power transmission line. The module has a full bridge inverter and a controller. The full bridge inverter has inputs for controlling charging and discharging a DC link capacitor. The controller is coupled to the inputs of the full bridge inverter. The controller is configured to separate a harmonic current from a line current flowing in the power transmission line. The controller operates the full bridge inverter in accordance with the separated harmonic current, to attenuate the harmonic current flowing in the power transmission line through injection of a DC link capacitor voltage.
