Question:

Does the LED street lamp 80W or 100W need to be compensated by a single light capacitor?

Does the LED street lamp 80W or 100W need to be compensated by a single light capacitor?

Answer:

Capacitor compensation is reactive power compensation or power factor compensation. The power system of electric equipment in use will produce reactive power, and is usually inductive, it will make use of the capacity of power efficiency, and by increasing the capacitance of the way properly in the system can be improved.
Traditional high-pressure sodium lamp street lamp end voltage is low, use compensation capacitor, otherwise the voltage is too low, it is difficult to start. LED street lamps rarely use capacitive compensation, because now LED street lamps are using wide voltage drive power, and some start voltage is below 100V, can be lit normally.
