The invention discloses an output current wave shape control method for a triphase Active Power Filter (APF). A T-shaped filter and a current wave shape controller are adopted to control the output current wave shape of the triphase AFT. The output filter for each phrase bridge arm of an inverter is a capacity connected to the middle point of two inductances connected with each other in series, and form a T-shaped structure, namely T-shaped filter; the calculation method for wave shape controlling is conducting Alfa, Beta, Omicron transformations to instruction current of the triphase APF, actual output current and the voltage of the power network, so as to realize decoupling of the wave shape controlling of the abc triphase output current; and respectively conducting pole assignment to the single-phrase system under decoupled Alfa, Beta, Omicron axis system, and correcting the error between the APF actual output current an the instruction current, so as to get instruction voltage of each phrase under the alfa, beta, Omicron axis system; and at last sending the instruction voltage to a space vector modulating module, so as to confirm the on-off signal of each bridge arm switch tube, thereby causing the actual output current of the PFA to accurately track the instruction current.
