Description
Summary:Artificial lighting is a necessity in the conduct of activities, especially at night. The use of fluorescent and LED lighting sources has led to a decrease in electricity consumption compared to incandescent lighting sources. The paper presents a case study highlighting the voltage and current waveforms in the operation of the analyzed sources. A considerable distortion of the current waveform is found, identifying the need for measures to improve power quality. The photometric measurements showed that for some light sources the luminous flux on the box is higher than the luminous flux actually emitted.
