Energy advantages of CFL has made it a common lighting device recently.
CFL comprises of electronic components which produces harmonics.
System gets polluted due to harmonics and it seriously affect the electrical equipments connected in the network.
INTRODUCTION
4
CFLs consume about 80% less power than conventional lamps.
Life span is 8-15 times that of incandescent.
Cost saving.
Shapes, styles and provide variety in light colors.
Produce 75% less heat.
Why CFL preferred over incandescent.
5
Most commonly used lighting device.
It consists of dc power supply and an ac inverter
Electronic device used in CFLs is the electronic ballast circuit.
Ballast circuit limits the ionizing current.
What is CFL and its working
6
ultraviolet rays are formed by the ionization of gases.
Fluorescent phosphor on glass tube surface convert ultraviolet rays to visible light.
Ionizing current generated is limited by the ballast circuit.
Working in detail
8
1. Electromagnetic interference filter. Filter unwanted harmonic currents
consumed by the load.2. Bridge rectifier. Ac voltage is converted to dc which is
supplied to the high frequency oscillator3. High frequency oscillator. High frequency ac voltage to the output
circuit and fluorescent tube.
PARTS OF BALLAST CIRCUIT AND FUNCTIONS
9
Presence of multiples of fundamental frequency.
Measured in terms of THD, Total Harmonic Distortion.
Created by non-linear loads.
Amount of equipments generating harmonics has risen dramatically.
Disturbs the power quality
HARMONICS
11
THD
• Measurement of the harmonic distortion in terms of rms voltage and current.
• THDV=√(V2²+V3²+V4²+…+Vn²)*100/v1.
IDF •Input Displacement Factor which refers to the cosine of the angle between input 50Hz voltage and current.
DF •Distortion factor shows the variation of the wave from the input sinusoidal wave.•DF=1/√(1+THD²), PF=IDF*DF
12
CFLs contain the electronic ballast within them.
The components of electronic ballast are non-linear in nature.
Non-linear components conduct during short bursts of the input sine wave.
Thus there forms cropped wave after the conduction of each component.
How CFL cause harmonics
13
There are different cropped waves of this type within the system.
Combines and forms higher order harmonic components.
Different harmonic voltages act together and there by disturbs the entire power quality.
How CFL cause harmonics
14
Harder to mitigate since CFLs are distributed across the network rather than in one location.
Why CFL harmonics exists?

Effect of 3rd,5th&7th order harmonics
19
Introduce neutral currents over 100% of the phase current.
Over heating of transformers.
Reduces the life expectancy of motors.
Over stressing of power factor correction capacitors.
Nuisance tripping of residual current circuit breakers.
Decreases equipment lifetime.
Problems caused by harmonics

Power factor in sinusoidal cases(linear loads)
V(t)=v1sin(ω0t+δ1)i(t)=i1sin(ω0t+θ1)
Pftrue=pfdisp=cos(δ1-θ1)
Power factor in non-sinusoidal cases(non-linear loads)
V(t)=Σ vnsin (nω0t+δn)i(t)=Σinsin(nω0t+θn)
Pf true=pfdisp*pfdist
Effect of harmonics on power factor

Reinforced distribution system
It is about 10 times cheaper to manufacture high power factor(0.9), low harmonic CFLs than correcting.
Harmonic filters. 1. active filters 2. passive filters
Isolation transformers
Methods to reduce harmonics
22
ACTIVE FILTERSUsed for low voltage
networks.Active filter reduction to
5%or less.Grouped as series,
parallel and hybrid filters.
Cancels multiple harmonic orders.
An array of capacitors, inductors and resistors.
Passive filter reduction to 15-25%.
Classified as series and parallel filters
Cancels only one harmonic order.
Reliable and economical
ACTIVE AND PASSIVE FILTERS
PASSIVE FILTERS

• High level of current distortion up to 140%.
• Low order harmonics are dominant.
High distortion electronic

• Current harmonic distortion is 30%.
• Considerable drop in lower order harmonics reduction in THD.
Low distortion electronic

• Harmonic distortion is below 20%.
• drop in lower order harmonics reduction in THD.
Magnetic ballast CFLs.
Classification of CFLs based on harmonic characteristics.

Low power factor and harmonic current distortion and its effect on distribution system.

Effects of widespread adoption of CFL
25
CFL reduces power consumption on lighting load side.Injects harmonics and causes distortion.Ballast circuit causes the generation of harmonics.Damage the equipments connected and seriously affect
the power factorHarmonics has to be eliminated to improve the power
quality.But advancing power electronic sector further makes
the distribution system impure.
