A novel high pressure sodium (HPS) lamp model is proposed. The proposed model is particularised for 150 W HPS lamps, providing a powerful tool for simulating the behaviour of such lamps operating with low‐frequency electromagnetic ballasts or high‐frequency switching electronic ballasts. Simulations and experimental results are provided for verification of the model. The model can be easily extended to other rated wattages and kinds of discharge lamps.
