Experimental and Digital Simulation Investigations of Harmonics Injection by CFLs into a LV Network

Today, the demand for electrical appliances, such as power converters, economic lamps, LEDs, speed drives, and regulators, is increasing in recent years, but despite their robustness and good dynamic responses, they inject harmonic currents into the network. This article presents in-depth studies on the effect of the use of Compact fluorescent lamps CFL on a Low Voltage (LV) local area network, as well as an interest in modeling this type called non-linear charge under PSIM and MATLAB Software.
