    Standard Tubular Fluorescent Lamps: Figure A6 Gives These Values For Different Arrangements of Ballast

    Uploaded by

    Namik Hadziibrahimovic
    This document summarizes the current demands and power consumption of standard tubular fluorescent lamps and compact fluorescent lamps when operated at 230V and 50Hz. For tubular fluorescent lamps, it provides the current in amps for different lamp arrangements, tube powers, and whether the ballast uses magnetic or electronic components with or without power factor correction. For compact fluorescent lamps, it lists the lamp power in watts and corresponding current in amps for separated and integrated ballast types.

    Standard tubular fluorescent lamps

    With (unless otherwise indicated):

     cos φ = 0.6 with no power factor (PF) correction[1] capacitor


     cos φ = 0.86 with PF correction[1] (single or twin tubes)
     cos φ = 0.96 for electronic ballast.
    If no power-loss value is indicated for the ballast, a figure of 25% of Pn may be used.
    Figure A6 gives these values for different arrangements of ballast.

    Compact fluorescent lamps
    Compact fluorescent lamps have the same characteristics of economy and long life as classical
    tubes. They are commonly used in public places which are permanently illuminated (for example:
    corridors, hallways, bars, etc.) and can be mounted in situations otherwise illuminated by
    incandescent lamps (see Fig. A7).

    Notes
    1. ^ a b “Power-factor correction” is often referred to as “compensation” in discharge-lighting-tube
    terminology.
    Cos φ is approximately 0.95 (the zero values of V and I are almost in phase) but the power
    factor is 0.5 due to the impulsive form of the current, the peak of which occurs “late” in each
    half cycle
