High voltage power networks mainly suffer from high order harmonics in the supply. Filters are used to reduce these harmonics because these harmonics lead to loss, resonance problems, overloading of capacitors leading to malfunctions. These filters have several benefits like high power factor, improved voltage stability, and avoidance of resonance problems.
