    The lighting system is a continuously used energy system found in all buildings. This system is highly complex as it includes various types such as incandescent bulbs, fluorescent tubes, HID lamps, and LEDs. These types of loads consist of many electronic components and are significant sources of Auto-Tuned Active Filter signals. These harmonic signals directly affect protective devices and electronic equipment in the building's electrical system. Therefore, reducing the harmonic signals generated by the lighting system is crucial for buildings. Generally, harmonic reduction can be achieved by installing one of three types of filters: active, passive, and hybrid. This research presents the design of an auto-tuned active filter using the MATLAB Simulink and tests it using four lighting load cases. The designed circuit can effectively reduce harmonic signals while also improving the energy efficiency of the building.

    This paper proposes the study and analysis of harmonics, energy consumption and power quality of light emitting diode (LED) lamps equipped in building lighting systems. LED lamps with external (LED MR16) and internal (LED light bulb) drivers are investigated using an experimental setup to compare the results. The power quality of both LED lamps is studied by using a power quality meter to measure the generated harmonic currents from various case studies. The case study is divided into four major cases: one LED lamp is turned on with one driver, two LED lamps are turned on using the two drivers, eight LED lamps are turned on with one driver, and eight LED lamps are turned on with the eight drivers. As harmonics are related to total power factor (PF), which affects the energy savings of the building, hence, a filtering circuit to reduce harmonic current has been designed and implemented to improve power quality and/or power factor of the system. The different cases of harmonic filter insertion at the input of an LED lamp's driver are discussed and then compared with a lighting standard to show the effectiveness of the passive filtering technique used in the studied system. In addition, the obtained result can be applied to both newly built and retrofitted buildings that aim to use LED technology to increase energy efficiency and decrease energy costs, and could be a helpful guide for end-users and manufacturers in addressing and developing LED issues.
