Performance analysis of LED and florescent lamps a case study of street lightning system

Abstract

Now there is tremendous appeal of ensuring energy security by using the energy saving. The recent trend is using LED lightning. This paper is the performance analysis of LED and conventional florescent lamps of 22 street lightning load. From the results it can be concluded that LED have reduced power consumption about 40% less not only that capacitors used in LED drivers gives magnificently high power factor near unity. In this analysis we found the power factor improvement of 44.4%. It is also found that harmonic is very low in case of LED as compared to conventional florescent lamp.
