The increase in nonlinear appliances in households is largely driven by their affordability. In the case of lighting appliances, it is necessary to use energy-saving light sources. A case study of the possibility of simultaneous connection of large amounts of lighting appliances and other nonlinear appliances used in households is conducted in this paper.A variant of distribution systems in housing estate is selected as an example. Simultaneous operation of a large number of these appliances in certain time periods and thus possible voltage distortion caused by higher order harmonics can be expected. This paper deals with two variants of possible load. In the first case the scenario with probable load is chosen. In the second case it is verified for extreme harmonics influence. Calculations are performed for the radial and the meshed network. In the particular case, calculations are verified by measurement.

“…The study is based on the univocal characterization of these devices through their invariants. These, which are the minimum number of normalized parameters required to completely characterize NLL behavior, can be used to efficiently conduct NLL studies (e.g., investigations on harmonic interaction, cancellation, and attenuation effects [33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40]) [41].…”

An in-depth study of harmonic current reduction in European commercial buildings due to the harmonic cancellation effect when a set of single-phase uncontrolled rectifiers and a set of fluorescent lamps are connected at the same voltage level is essential, since both types of non-linear loads are very present in commercial and residential sectors. This paper provides an appropriate index to assess the global cancellation level of the harmonic currents for this study. The equivalent circuit per phase of the typical three-phase power system of European commercial installations is presented and simplified for the cancellation analysis of the harmonic currents consumed by a set of multiple identical single-phase uncontrolled rectifiers and a set of multiple identical fluorescent lamps connected at the same voltage level. The suitability and usefulness of the proposed index are shown by applying it to that analysis, which leads to some results of practical interest. This index can be generalized to any number of sets of multiple identical non-linear loads and can be applied in graphical and optimization studies that will allow a greater benefit from the harmonic cancellation effect to be obtained given the global nature of the index.

The effects of a widespread use of Compact Fluorescent Lamps (CFLs) on harmonics in the low voltage grid are analyzed. Therefore, measurements of the harmonic characteristics of nine different brands of CFLs are done. Based on these measurement results, a simulation model is developed, which enables to study the interaction of multiple CFLs. Thereby, the harmonic content of both currents and voltages are considered. Additionally, the impact of the capacitive behavior of CFLs on resonances phenomena is investigated and its consequences for the harmonic spectrum are represented.
