Hello,
The attached shows two slightly different mains input currents to 140W offline lighting products. (Class C products for Mains harmonics)
Strangely, the one with a longer “dead time” gives a better pass of mains harmonic current regulations. (by dead time I mean the time that the current is zero).
Both currents are equally in phase with the mains voltage as you can see.
Why does the one with the longer dead time more closely conform to mains harmonics? Should we make the dead time greater to improve mains harmonics further still?

The one with longer dead time fails on the 5th harmonic only
The one with the shorter dead time fails on the 5th and 27th harmonics.
