Abstract


This work presents the modelling and simulation of compact fluorescent lamp and Light emitting diodes fittings for the analysis of harmonics introduced into power distribution network. The THD was determined using a simplified Fast Fourier transform (FFT) harmonics analysis algorithm in the simulation package. A laboratory test was conducted to validate the simulation results of the CFL and LED fittings using Linear Technology spice (LTspice) software package. For the waveforms acquired with the Fluke 435, the CFL was observed to have Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) in current waveform up to 90.4% in comparison to LED of 21%. In the LT spice, the results showed that 130.2% and 32.2% were obtained for CFL THD in the current and voltage waveforms respectively. The laboratory test results thus validated the accuracy of simulation to about 56%. It also revealed that the CFL produced more distortion than LED.  However, the voltage THD lies within the IEEE 519-2014 recommendation of 8% for the both devices in the actual lighting devices. Nonetheless, suitable methods of harmonic mitigating might be continued as improved production processes to prevent the excessive harmonic injection into the distribution network.
