A starter initially provides a path to complete the circuit. The tube light starts when the current flows through the ionized gas in the main tube.

Starter is asmall device in a fluroscent tube light to start the ciruit. Once lit, starting circuit cuts off automatically
The small cylindrical thing that You see (generally on a side of the choke coil) is the "starter " of the tube light. This is the capacitor used in tube light. And is used to provide a momentary voltage rise of nearly 400V to start up the tube light hence Starter.
yes, special tube lights without starter are available which do not require a spark.
it will not glow

The starter should easily fit into the florescent fixture by sliding it into the hole and then securing it by twisting it in place. If you are having issues, you may need to check to ensure that you have the correct size starter for your florescent tube.
yes
Using a 70W starter in a 58W fluorescent tube is not recommended. Starters are designed to match the wattage of the specific fluorescent tube they are used with, and mismatching can lead to inefficient operation, flickering, or even damage to the tube or starter. It's best to use a starter that is specifically rated for a 58W fluorescent tube to ensure optimal performance and safety.
Your tube light may be flickering intermittently due to a loose connection, a faulty starter, or a problem with the ballast. It is recommended to check and tighten the connections, replace the starter, or have a professional inspect and repair the ballast if needed.
Fluorescent tube with a separate starter? If it's working, you can remove the starter and it will keep going. But if you turn it off, it won't start next time you turn it on.
The starter is used to help the lamp light and acts like a closed switch. It allows electric current to flow through the filaments.
yes..if we replace magnetic ballast with electronic ballast...there is no need of starter if we use electronic ballast.
