Abstract

The main focus of this paper is to analyze the process of replacing the incandescent light bulbs with enhanced filament which have low electrical efficiency, by one of the most modern techniques of lighting, LED (light emitting diode), and the impacts on efficiency energy and power quality. Thus, in search of solutions aimed at energy efficiency and power quality, this article offers reviews and comparisons of measurements taken on the field during the replacement of incandescent bulbs by LEDs in all traffic and pedestrian lights in the city of Cuiabá /MT.
