Hi,

 

I believe the kVAR produced by the CFL’s and LED’s are very small. CFL’s can be considered as a resistive load, thus producing very small amount of kVAR. On the other hand, LED is a nonlinear load, so this may affect the whole system’s pF because of the Harmonics Distortion that it may cause.
