Compact fluorescent lamps and high-power light-emitting diodes use an electronic device that injects harmonics into distribution networks, thereby altering power quality levels. This paper shows these lamps' electrical characterisation and the results of a computer simulation of a radial distribution feeder supplying electricity to customers who use this type of harmonic load. The objective was to analyse the effect on distribution systems due to CFLs and LEDs' high penetration.

Las bombillas fluorescentes compactas y los diodos emisores de luz de alta potencia usan un dispositivo electrónico que inyecta armónicos en las redes de distribución, alterando los índices de calidad de la potencia. Este artículo muestra la caracterización eléctrica de este tipo de lámparas y el resultado de la simulación de un circuito de distribución radial que alimenta a consumidores residenciales que utilizan este tipo de cargas armónicas. El objetivo es el de analizar el efecto en los sistemas de distribución debido a la alta penetración de BFCs y LEDs.
