With the advent of new electricity production modes, power electronics, LED lamps and
underground cables, new types of disturbances will appear, including an increase in …

In recent years, several countries have adopted measures aimed at improving the efficiency
of energy usage and reducing energy costs. One initiative has been to encourage the use of …

The use of compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs) in utility distribution systems is spreading due
to energy consumption concerns. This can damage system power quality because CFLs are …

A new generalized lamp model capable of simulating a lamp's luminous flux in the time
domain is presented. Reference is made to low power lamps (up to 25 W). The generalized …

Lighting is one of the major energy end uses, which accounts for approximately 20–30% of
electricity consumption in buildings. In fact, the fluorescent lamp is the most employed lamp …

This paper presents a tunable flicker meter based on a generalized lamp model that is able
to account for lamp technologies different from incandescent. The generalized lamp model is …

The replacement of incandescent lamps with more energy-efficient lighting technologies has
a direct influence on the way flicker is measured. The International Electrotechnical …

The spreading use of compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs) in utility distribution systems is
leading to increased concerns over power quality because CFLs consume highly distorted …

The large-scale use of home appliances based on Switch Mode Power Supplies (SMPSs)
raises the interest in power quality problems they might cause. Accurate modeling of SMPS …

We present an experimental study of the behavior of modern lighting technologies under
supply voltage fluctuations. Some studies have reported that flicker severity measurements …
