Efectos en las redes eléctricas de distribución en baja tensión por la aplicación de lamparas Led en el sistema de alumbrado público

Abstract

The change from sodium vapor luminaires to LED luminaires is an increasingly common trend in the public lighting system and urban lighting, due to the benefits they offer such as lower power consumption, longer useful life and better lighting quality. However, it is important to carry out a comparative technical analysis to understand the effects that it can have on low-voltage electrical distribution networks and determine if it is convenient to adopt this type of lighting and what are the differences with sodium lighting. The main objective of this research is to carry out a technical analysis of the change from sodium luminaires to LED luminaires using a network analyzer to assess the possible impacts on low voltage electrical distribution networks. This involves analyzing different aspects, such as power demand, system stability, power quality, and generated harmonics. The technical analysis of sodium luminaires and LED luminaires in low voltage electrical distribution networks is essential to understand and evaluate the effects that this transition may have on the system. This provides valuable information to optimize the operation and maintenance of electrical networks, guaranteeing reliable, safe and efficient operation.
