This paper analyzed harmonics from high speed railway traction to high speed railway substation and provide a reduction method of harmonics using the passive filter. A substation supplies the electric power to a train or can supply the electric power to several trains. According to the number of trains covered by a substation, characteristics of harmonics are investigated. These harmonics affect transformer heating and inductive interference. In order to get rid of the damage from the harmonics, this paper presented minimizing method of harmonics. The proposed method is verified in simulation using the PSCAD/EMTDC.
