How to eliminate involuntary glow or flickering of a switched off LED lamp
Involuntary glow or flickering of LED or energy-saving lamps can be observed for two reasons. The first is the incorrect activation of the switch itself, as a result of which it opens the neutral conductor and not the phase conductor. The second reason is the presence of an indicator light in the switch. Any of these reasons can give the lamp microcurrents sufficient to glow.
How to eliminate the glow of a switched off LED lamp with your own hands
By the way, the problem is solved quite simply. It is necessary to install the capacitor parallel to the lamp, directly into the lamp. Such a capacitor can be bought at a construction or lighting store or ordered on Ali Express: AC capacitor 0.1 uF 400 V - http://alii.pub/5m4rzk
Next, according to the diagram, we install the capacitor parallel to the lamp; to do this, you need to open it and get to the connection point.
The item is small and should fit even in a small box.
After this, the glow and flickering will stop and will not irritate you.
By the way, if you have several more lamps turned on in parallel, then you no longer need to install capacitors on them.
This element will not consume “extra” electricity, since there is no active resistance in it. On the contrary, the capacitor will improve the quality of the voltage in the network, smoothing out all surges and interference with its capacitance.
