Advancement in electrical power transmission has led to the revolution in industrial and domestic application of electrical appliances. Poor power quality will degrade the efficiency and life span of electrical devices increasing financial losses as well. To enhance power quality, it is necessary to address reactive power compensation and maintain a power factor close to unity. This paper proposes a Shunt Active Power Filter based system which is capable of maintaining the power factor near unity in real-time by continuously detecting load voltage and current in the system using a zero crossing method and thus switching the capacitance value of subsequent value to compensate it. The presented system is developed in the MATLAB Simulink environment and the results are meeting to IEEE-519 standard.
