LCL filter are essential to connect AFE (active front end) drives and AIC (active infeed converter) ot the grid. With the increasing need for saving electrical energy more often AFE/AIC’s are applied for energy regeneration reasons. Regaining energy during AC motor cost to rest or braking avoids wasting energy in the motor or the braking resistance.In addition, LCL filter are also required to enable DC-AC converter feeding the elctrical energy back to the grid.
