This article presents a study of compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs) low energy consumption lamps found in the Cameroonian market. The current obtained in the experimental setup has been analyzed in Matlab Simulink. The results obtained show that the THD of different lamps does not respect the standard IEC-61000-3-2. These values increase with the power of lamps. Spectral analysis of these lamps shows that the probable cause of their premature degradation results from the effects of harmonics on the capacitors. This degradation is all more precocious as the rank and the concerned THDi is great. That¡¯s why 75 W lamps are more sensitive than others.
