LED street lighting: A power quality comparison among street light technologies

Abstract: High-pressure sodium lamps are currently the main lamps used in public lighting. However, the possibility of using high-power light emitting diode (LEDs) for street lighting is growing continuously due to their greater energy efficiency, robustness, long life and light control. The aim of this paper is to study the power quality of high-power lighting networks based on LED and high-pressure sodium lamps. Both electromagnetic and dimmable electronic ballasts, which can dim the lamp output smoothly and uniformly… Show more

“…Several studies reveal that current harmonics of odd order and peak currents are the main negative effects regarding power quality associated with the electronic sources of LED technology [20,21]. This problem becomes exacerbated as smart digital control and transmission systems are being installed together with LED luminaires to be tele controlled.…”

“…Ballasts are dimmable from 60% to 100% of the lamp input power, but the measurements presented here have been conducted for 100% of the arc power. More details about the energy efficient street lighting remote management system used in this experiment can be found in [5], [6]. The measured total harmonic distortion (THDI) at 100% of arc power level is 11.4%, and the displacement power factor (DPF) at 100% of light output was measured to be 0.9745, corresponding to 13° shift between the fundamental waveforms of voltage and current.…”

“…Research has previously been performed on combining an economic analysis with a product performance analysis to develop street lighting standards [9][10][11][12]. In addition, the beneits of LEDs have been investigated in a previous research, such as reduced concern of the power factor of electricity loads [13]. Another potential beneit is the ability to rapidly start luminaires without harmful impact on the luminaire's lifetime, which can allow for "smarter" usage of lighting systems [14].…”
