The choke works in conjunction with a starter . When you turn on the light , voltage is applied to the choke, and when the switch opens after a few seconds, it creates a high voltage across the contacts at each end of the tube. This starts the ionization of the gas , which glows. Once ionized, it continues producing light even when the voltage applied is only 120 VAC, the power line voltage.

∙ 13y agochoke provides the sudden change in the voltage ionisation process of the lamp
once thegas in the lamp gets ionisation then the gas starts conducting
once the conduction gets started then the starter in the tube light will get
gets out of the circuit
then after if starter is took out of the tube then it doesnt affect the lighting

∙ 11y agoThe idea of the choke is to avoid a sudden surge of energy, since the tube has a very small resistance. Without a choke, it would burn out.

AnswerTo limit the current flowing through the lamp, once the gas in the tube has ionised.

Is tube light run without choke?
No it will not. If you need increase the supply voltage and remove the choke.
If a light bulb is missing in a series circuit will the bulb light?
If one light bulb in a series circuit fails, all the other light bulbs will go out, until the failed bulb is replaced and the series circuit is completed again.If one light bulb in a parallel circuit fails, all the other light bulbs will still work.
What happens when one light bulb burns out in a series circuit?
All of the light bulbs in the series circuit would go out.
What is the use of parallel circuit?
It is very beneficial to have a parallel circuit... for example: 1. If one light in a parallel circuit goes out, the other light bulbs will remain lit Whereas if a light in a series circuit goes out, all bulbs will go out 2. If not all light bulbs are needed on, you can turn them off with the remaining light bulbs staying on
Why an electrical device will not work if the neutral is not connected in a single phase system?
To make any electrical circuit work it has to be complete. Source of power to the load, the load itself and a return path from the load back to the source. The source in this case being the distribution panel. Any breaks in this complete path will cause the current to stop flowing and the device to not work. A light fixture and light switch work on this principle, open the circuit and the light goes out.
Working of choke in tubelight?
The choke works as an inductor(filter) induced 850V to 1100V in starting,by strarter make and break of the circuit. After glowing the tube light choke work as inductance and provide 110v to circuit, here the function of starter comes. It helps the chocke to brek from the circuit and to 110v from 850V.thankining U "Nikki"

A modified choke tube for a 2200 Winchester winchoke model or some kind of choke that will work on this model?
Same choke tube as a 1200 or 1400 pump
Can T8 LED tube light be used with ballast and can ballast be removed and will it work?
A T8 LED tube has to be used with a ballast to bring the correct voltage to the tube for it to operate correctly. Removing the ballast from the circuit will prevent the tube from operating.
How does the hazard light circuit work?
signal light
How would you troubleshoot a light circuit that does not work?
Tail light doesn't. Work with new bulb in
What happens when a light bulb is broken in a series circuit?
In that case, the entire circuit won't work.
When you flip a switch to turn on the light you?
Either close the circuit, or complete the circuit, should work here.
What would b the effect on the circuit should the starter be taken out after the lamp is started?
Once started the fluorescent tube no longer needs the starter. In fact starters are designed to electrically "remove" themselves from the circuit when the fluorescent tube is conducting.
How do UV light bulbs work?
UV bulbs are usually fluorescent tubes with the normal white phoshor powders removed. Heaters at each end of the tube excite electrons to 'boil' off the wires. A high voltage is applied via an inductor or choke across the tube ends which sets up a flow of electrons through the tube called a plasma. This is the 'electric blue' of a miniature lightning bolt and emits UV light.
If a light bulb is missing in a series circuit will the bulb light?
If one light bulb in a series circuit fails, all the other light bulbs will go out, until the failed bulb is replaced and the series circuit is completed again.If one light bulb in a parallel circuit fails, all the other light bulbs will still work.
How would the circuit inside a flashlight work?
Flashlight by light, battery, circuit, a hood and a reflective cup, circuit storehouse, switch, etc, the basic principle is the current from the battery, and then to the circuit, after adjusting circuit voltage and current, and then output to the light source for lighting.
