Projeto e implantação de um laboratório de ensaios elétricos para empresas fabricantes de luminárias de iluminação pública

Abstract

In large urban areas, public lighting has become a necessary factor for improving the quality of life and safety of its residents. With constant technological evolution of light fixtures and consumer demand, it is essential that a company produces high quality items with regulatory compliance. This requires defining the tests, equipment used for each test and a methodology for achieving these, for example, doing a bench would work well. So, it’d be meeting customers' requirements and saving money on equipment that lead to further issues and troubles. In this project a survey of the main topics related to a testing laboratory for electrical fixtures, such as types of lamps, ballasts, fixtures, and especially the tests. With all those items above set, a layout of the bench is developed with their respective circuits and equipments. A data sheet can then be created with all the assay procedures, in which the operator can perform the tests noting the comparison between the data obtained and the expected data, according to the rules. At least one test is performed to fulfill the requirements of the data sheet and assist future operator’s performance.
