Abstract: This research presents the modeling and prediction of the harmonic behavior of current in an electric power supply grid with the integration of photovoltaic power by inverters using artificial neural networks to determine if the use of the proposed neural network is capable of capturing the harmonic behavior of the photovoltaic energy integrated into the user’s electrical grids. The methodology used was based on the use of recurrent artificial neural networks of the nonlinear autoregressive with external input type. Work data were obtained from experimental sources through the use of a test bench, measurement, acquisition, and monitoring equipment. The input–output parameters for the neural network were the current values in the inverter and the supply grid, respectively. The results showed that the neural network can capture the dynamics of the analyzed system. The generated model presented flexibility in data handling, allowing to represent and predict the behavior of the harmonic phenomenon. The obtained algorithm can be transferred to physical or virtual systems for the control or reduction of harmonic distortion.
