This paper presents nonlinear adaptive Volterra filter for control of three-phase four wires Distribution Static Compensator under mixed type linear and nonlinear load. The proposed adaptive filter identifies and measures active and reactive weights of the fundamental components of load currents. These weights are used to generate the reference signals such that the currents drawn from a supply are close to balanced and sinusoidal. The performance of the proposed control algorithm is observed under nonlinear load in the laboratory environment. The test results are found satisfactory as total harmonic distortion in supply currents are within the 5% levels specified by the IEEE Standard 519-1992.
