“…Annual analyses of the operation of the power supply facilities of the Russian Railways show that the share of electricity consumption by non-traction consumers is about 14 % of the total electricity consumption in JSC "Russian Railways", so technical solutions to improve energy efficiency (Andronchev et al, 2020;Garanin et al, 2017;Mitrofanov et al, 2020aMitrofanov et al, , 2020b in both traction and non-traction energetics can bring the company a large profit. However, both in operation and in the planned power supply systems for nontraction consumers of railway transport, the influence of switching power supplies of LED lamps on the quality of electricity is not sufficiently taken into account.…”

The article presents the results of the study of the influence of LED lamps with switching power supplies containing power factor correctors on the quality of electricity in the power supply system of non-traction consumers of railway transport. It is noted that the emission of harmonic components of current by electronic loads can cause deviations in the quality of electricity up to the occurrence of emergency situations due to overloads of low (0.4 kV) and medium (6/10 kV) voltage networks. A non-linear electronic load (LED lamp), although equipped with a power factor corrector, causes the generation of a significant level of current harmonics, which significantly affect the operation of the transformer. As a result, the transformer, calculated taking into account the load factor of 0.7 – 0.8, can not be normally operated in the conditions of using electronic load devices. Mathematical modeling of the correction of the modes of the power supply system with nonlinear single-phase loads is performed, provided that the correction devices made on the basis of several condensers and reactors with nonlinear characteristics are used to balance the modes.
