Hi Bordodynov and all who helped,

Thank you very much for the link ?and the files for the 13W, 120V AC Compact Fluorescent lamp. Unfortunately, I was looking for a more representative power (20W or nearest and I was hoping to load up to at least 100W/VA) and 230V/240V AC 50Hz . ?I could see how to basically tweek the relevant parameters to achieve what I was looking for but I was not sure that the result would be well and truly representative. ?Besides, I discovered that I had some inherent design flaws in my inverter design which had hitherto been uncovered-- this was not the given model problem.
??After overcoming the inverter problems I found I had in my archives a ballast design from Phillips and some time ago I had written ?a spice based model for a CFL based on a paper published by Shefield University researchers. ?I have now been able to do ?an LTspice simulation for a 30W CFL( I am really looking to simulate the designed inverter output power of 500W/VA) I am still thinking about how to simulate for 500W/VA. ?Ideas most welcome

Thanks a lot everbody for your contributions

Michael
