DC Lights
 For SHS and BCS, DC lights are necessary
– Available power is very limited
– Electricity is very precious
– High efficiency lights are necessary
 Type of DC Lights
– DC Fluorescent Lamp
Compact Fluorescent Lamp (CFL)
– Halogen Lamp
– LED Lamp (Preferred Lamp for HEP Project because of its
high efficiency)
3W&1W LED
1W LED

7 W LED
 Load 3/19

DC Lights
 Halogen lamp is easily available at automobile parts shop
– Easily available but power consumption is higher than CFL.
 LED lamp is now popular as lightings for both off-grid and on-grid areas
– Cost of LED is becoming cheaper than CFL light.
– LED light is now one of the component recommended for SHS
