1. INTRODUCTION
It is well accepted that energy conservation has equal or even more
importance compared with installation of new generating capacities in meeting
the demand for electrical energy. The relevance of Demand Side
Management (DSM), i.e., the energy planning strategy with emphasis on
reducing the energy demand by the use of energy efficient technologies at the
user end, over the Supply Side Management (SSM), has been now
universally recognised.
According to a study done by IRTC, about one third of the total power
consumption of Kerala and three fourth of the peak load, is for lighting
purpose. The study also revealed that the energy consumption could be
reduced significantly if energy-efficient lighting devices like fluorescent tubes
and Compact Fluorescent Lamps (CFLs) are used instead of the ordinary
incandescent bulbs.
However CFLs and other fluorescent lamps with electronic chokes if used in
large numbers may cause, it is feared, severe depression in the power factor
on the one hand and induce high levels of harmonics within the system, which
may lead to higher losses and system instabilities.
Because of the huge demand for the CFLs and electronic choke for the
fluorescent tubes, a number of manufacturers have ventured into this
business and flooded the market with cheap and low quality products. Since
the market is very competitive, the manufacturers are compromising on the
quality of the product so as to offer their products at lower prices. Even the
multinationals and the reputed manufacturers are selling low quality products.
A typical high quality CFL with over voltage protection and well-suppressed
harmonics can cost anywhere between Rs. 300 to Rs. 450. As many as 70 to
80 component parts are required to make the chokes of necessary quality.

Compared to this cheaper CFLs, without any of the above is being sold at Rs
100 to 120. CFLs that are ridiculously cheap have been dumped with in the
market from China (LEUCI Brand), SreeLanka (Honey Queen), Japan
(MYOTA) and are sold Rs 25 to 30. A large number of consumers maychangeover from incandescent lamps to these CFLs. Electricity Board and
Government may want to encourage this. It has become urgent to the study
the technical performance of these lamps i.e.; impact of harmonics cost
effectiveness etc.
It was suspected that high harmonics and low power factor caused by these
devices might damage the power quality and efficiency of the distribution
system. In this context it was felt necessary that a detailed study on the effect
of substantial induction of low quality compact fluorescent lamps in a rural
distribution system be carried out. This is the context of present study carried
out jointly by IRTC and KSEB.
2. SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES OF THE PROJECT
1. To conduct a series of laboratory investigations to measure the level of
high harmonics and low power factor of the low quality CFLs.
2. To conduct a real-time field study in a selected transformer in a typical
electrical major section to investigate the impact of high harmonics and
low power factor on the electrical distribution system.
3. To prepare technical recommendations and guidelines for formulating
policies regarding the propagation/popularisation of the energy efficient
lighting devices.
3. METHODOLOGY
The study was conducted in two phases,
1.The laboratory study.
2.The real time field study
The Poriyani 160 kVA transformer under Electrical Major Section, Kongad in
Electrical Division, Palakkad was selected for the investigation after

consultations with the Deputy Chief Engineer, Palakkad. A 4kVA transformer
was made available for carrying out a laboratory test by simulating load
conditions
3.1. Laboratory Test
The laboratory test was conducted in the following phases.
1. Loading the test transformer with incandescent lamps, totaling to
wattage of about 3000 W in R, Y & B phases in balanced and
unbalanced conditions in different steps and combinations
2. Loading the transformer with compact fluorescent lamps totaling to a
wattage of 3000 W to R, Y & B phases in balanced and unbalanced
conditions in different steps and combinations
3. Taking different measurements in both cases, of the following
parameters
a. Level of current harmonics and distortion on the transformer
b. Level of voltage harmonics and distortion
c. Effect of heating on the core and winding of the transformer
d. Effect on the power factor of the system
e. Energy loss due to the lighting loadsf. Lumens/Watt
4. The load conditions of an ideal domestic consumer were simulated on
the lab transformer and all the relevant parameters were measured.
3.2. Real Time Field Study
The methodology for the detailed investigation in the field i.e.; on
Poriyani 160kVA transformer was finalised in consultation with experts in a
workshop held on 18-06-2003. In the discussions that followed KSEB
engineers provided the details of the existing consumers connected to the
transformer, which has two low tension distribution feeders. In the field the
study was carried out in the following phases
-

1. Taking all the relevant readings at the transformer mains and
sending end terminals of feeders I & II in the existing load
conditions.
2. Taking all the relevant readings at two selected domestic consumerpremises connected to feeder II in the existing load conditions.
3. Replacing 190 incandescent lamps in 45 domestic premises
connected to feeder II.
4. Taking all the relevant readings at two selected domestic consumer
premises connected to feeder II after replacement of incandescent
lamps by CFLs.
5. Taking all the relevant readings at the transformer mains and
sending end terminals of feeders I & II after replacement of
incandescent lamps.
4. ANALYSIS OF TEST RESULTS
4.1. Laboratory Study
1.The Power factor of individual low cost CFLs is found to be very low in the
order of 0.5 to 0.6. (TABLE 1)
2.The power factor was found to improve as the total number of CFLs in thecircuit increased. (TABLE 2 -4)
3.The total harmonic distortion is high for the individual CFLs. (TABLE 1). But
THD decreased as the number of CFLs in the circuit increased. (TABLES 2
- 4)
4.Harmonics induced at the transformer primary was found to be much lesser
than that at the secondary. (TABLE 5)
5.Transformer loss was found to be higher for the CFLs compared to the
incandescent circuit of equivalent wattage (TABLE 5).
6.Due to the low power factor of the CFLs high current was drawn, higher
than the incandescent lamps for the same wattage. As a result the
temperature increase was greater for the CFL circuit but only three or four
degrees. (TABLES 6 & 7)
-

7.Lumen per watt for the CFLs is much higher than that for the incandescent
lamps. There is no much variation in lumen out put even at system voltage
as low as 130 V, when CFLs are used (TABLE 8)
8.For the same lumen output much lesser power is consumed in the case ofCFLs and hence much lower current is drawn. Therefore the temperature
rise and the transformer loss would be ultimately reduced.
9.Load condition of a typical consumer was simulated in the lab. The load of
CFLs (39 W) is of smaller percentage of the total connected load (732 W
&2080 W with and without pump motor respectively). The power factor
improves considerably with motors and CFLs used concurrently in the
system (TABLE 9)
10. Waveforms distortions were very much higher at the test points due to
other loads such as television as compared to the addition of CFLs.
(TABLE 9)
4.2. Field study
1. Poriyani- II (160 kVA) transformer was selected for the field study. The
transformer is too under loaded (only around 60 kVA at peak hours) and
unbalanced to obtain an objective assessment of the impact of replacing
incandescent lamps with CFL on the transformer performance.
2.The power quality varied extensively from test point to test point due to
system fluctuations.
3.The nature of the waveforms at various test points depended mainly on the
load nature. The connected load at the two test points for different dates of
measurement is given in TABLE 11.
4.At the peak hours the power factor at the transformer was found to be unity
and the harmonics much lesser before the lamps were replaced.
5.As the incandescent lamps were replaced with the CFLs the power factor of
the system decreased only nominally, but the total harmonic distortion
increased noticeably. (TABLE 10 ,12 & 13)

5. CONCLUSIONS
1.The field study revealed that the replacement of the existing incandescent
lamps with CFLs resulted in a reduction of load current (by 33 % in the LT
feeder under investigation). Calculation showed that the distribution loss in the
local network could be reduced substantially (about 40 % in the feeder
concerned).
2. The total power consumed by the CFLs to give the equivalent lumen
output will be less than 20 to 25 % of the power consumed by the
incandescent lamps. This reduces the total current in the transformer, thereby
reducing the transformer losses.
3.The effects of low power factor and high harmonics in the system by the
addition of the low quality CFLs were not found predominant in the rural
distribution system under investigation where electrical appliances of
heterogeneous nature such as TV, fridge, pumping motor etc. are connected.
The overall power factor was observed to fall from unity to 0.95 only. This is
not very much significant taking the overall system characteristic into
consideration.
4.Electrical appliances such as TV cause much more harmonic distortions
than by CFLs5. The present study is adequate to show,
a) For identical end use conditions (same or slightly improved illumination)
total replacement of incandescent lamps by CFLs doesnt cause
1) Any disturbance to the operation of other equipments like TV, radio,
computer etc.
2) Does provide comparatively more illumination at lower voltages as is
usual in Kerala rural areas.
3) The overall load current and hence line and transformer losses
come down. The actual value depends upon the original share of lighting load
in the system
4) When the transformer are fully loaded in kVA rating the active power
outputs will be lesser because of reduced power factor, but can serve more
-

12/31
12
consumers because the power required by each for the same end use
services is reduced.
b) It will be, therefore, reasonable to argue that a total change over to CFLs in
the entire system can be thought of.
c) The next stage of the experiment could be to replace the incandescent
lamps in an overloaded section by CFLs at Electricity Boards expense and
observe the consequent reduction in load, reduction in the line losses and
work out the real economy of such a program.
It has been found the cheap CFLs are poorer in quality than the
costlier ones, not only in current quality and lumen output per watt, but also
with respect to the overall lifetime. 25 % of the lamps purchased failed before
they reached three hundred hours of total operation. The present estimation
based on the performance of remaining lamps is that average life will not be
more than 1000 hours, as compared to the normally claimed life of 6000
hours for good quality CFLs. A study of the failure mode of these cheap
imported CFLs might reveal some common features, which possibly can be
rectified with out considerable increase in cost. The following simple
calculation compares the economic performance of the cheap and high quality
CFLs for 6000 hours. The 60 W incandescent lamp, 10 W high quality CFL
and 15 W low quality CFL are having comparable lumen output.
Average unit cost of electricity = Rs 2.50
No. of hours of burning = 4 hours per day on an average

* (Six replacements are to be made for incandescent lamp and low quality CFL)
For the consumer cheap CFLs work out cheaper, for identical lumen output.
From Electricity Boards point of viewCapital cost per watt delivered at consumer end = Rs 50. Distribution loss is
30% with incandescent lamps and 20 % with CFLs. To deliver 60 W at user
end 87 W has to be generated by the Board.
Savings due to the replacement of a 60 W incandescent bulb by high quality
and low quality CFLs having comparable lumen output
*(@ 20 % distribution loss)
Here the difference in the savings when using the high quality CFLs and the
low quality CFLs is only marginal.
6. RECOMMENDATIONS
1) Energy-efficient lighting devices like fluorescent tubes and Compact
Fluorescent Lamps (CFLs) have 6tob be promoted by the KSEB instead of
ordinary incandescent lamps.2) Energy-efficient lighting devices like fluorescent tubes and Compact
Fluorescent Lamps (CFLs) have to be distributed to the consumers at the
board's expense.
3) As the first step towards this and as the continuation of this study a typical
urban section and also a rural section have to be selected and the long term

implications has to be studied and also the quantitative analysis of the savings
made has to be made for a period of at least six months .
4) For maintaining the quality of the electric supply the KSEB has to begin
with those electronic equipment such as the television, UPS etc. whichproduce larger harmonic current in the electric distribution system
5) The active filters or the static compensators can be installed at the
transformer end or at the substation level to suppress the harmonic current
and also to improve the power factor of the system.
6) Advanced researches are to be promoted in this field.
