What else can I help you with?
A choke coil placed in series with an electric lamp in an ac circuit causes the lamp to become dim why is it so?
The light is getting dim because the choke is using the energy the lamp should be using. The purpose of the choke is to remove transients; if it is using power at 50 or 60Hz, this is not desirable. My guess is this lamp is using a new energy efficient (not incandescent) light bulb? If this is the case, don't. If this is a choke you added to the lamp, then perhaps it's the wrong type choke (too large inductance). If you added this, it could be that you inadvertently inserted resistance in the lamp wire. Check to make sure nothing is getting hot around your new wiring. A bad solder point could cause this to some degree.
Why choke coil is used in tube light?
To limit the current through the lamp when the gas ionises and conducts.
How does a choke work in a tube light circuit?
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.
Why does the starter not strike after it has established the glow in the tube?
The starter does not strike after establishing the glow in the tube because it is designed to operate only during the initial phase of starting the fluorescent lamp. Once the gas in the tube ionizes and allows current to flow, the starter automatically disconnects from the circuit. This prevents it from interfering with the normal operation of the lamp, allowing the ballast to regulate the current and maintain the light output.
What is the function of the choke in a hpsv lamp?
The function of any ballast in a lighting fixture is to raise the voltage high enough to strike an arc through the bulb or tube.
Can I replace a 230 watt linear halogen lamp with a Watt linear halogen lamp with safety in a flood light?
A 230 watt linear halogen lamp should be replaced by a 230 watt linear halogen lamp if the same brightness is required.
Functions of choke and starter in a fluorescent lamp?
The choke is used to limit the current flowing through the fluorescent lamp during start-up, allowing the lamp to warm up gradually. The starter is responsible for providing the initial high-voltage kick needed to start the lamp by ionizing the gas inside the tube. Together, the choke and starter work to regulate the flow of electricity and provide the necessary conditions for the fluorescent lamp to operate efficiently.
What is the purpose of halogen gas in a tungsten-halogen lamp?
The purpose of halogen gas in a tungsten-halogen lamp is to increase the lifespan and efficiency of the lamp. The halogen gas helps to recycle evaporated tungsten back onto the filament, preventing blackening of the glass and extending the life of the lamp.
What is a halogen microwave?
There is no halogen microwave. There is a halogen microwave oven bulb. (The technical term for a "bulb" is a lamp.) Some microwave ovens use a halogen lamp to light up the oven cavity. Replacing them is similar to replacing a "regular" incandescent lamp, except that when halogen lamps are being replaced, it is critical not to touch the lamp with bare fingers. Leaving skin oils on a halogen lamp shortens the lamp life and can set up a dangerous situation where the lamp might overheat.
How do you say if xenon lamp or halogen lamp?
xenon(Z NON) halogen(HAL O JEN)
Can a single pole switch replace a starter in a fluorescent lamp?
No, a single pole switch cannot replace a starter in a fluorescent lamp. The starter is required to initiate the flow of current through the tube, which a switch alone cannot accomplish. The switch is used for turning the lamp on and off once the starter has activated the lamp.
How do you determine the amps for a halogen lamp?
You can determine the amps of any power consuming source by dividing the watts by the volts. Example: If the bulb is 60 watts and your volts are 120, then 60/120 = .5 amps. Or you could use an amp probe.
Where can one purchase a Halogen desk lamp?
Halogen desk lamp, Living Access Halogen desk lamp price can be bought from Amazon. Price of the lamp is only 23$ additional 2$ for shipping charge. Which is a great offer.
How do you change halogen bulb in ls-984 torch reading combo lamp?
It is a double ended halogen bulb and I do not know how to get to it to release it from the lamp.
What day was the halogen lamp invented?
1909
Can I replace a 230watt linear halogen lamp with a 200watt halogen linear lamp with safety?
No problem because the 200 watt produces less heat.
What size of led lamp will be equivalent to 150 Watt halogen lamp?
LEDs and CFLs use about a quarter of a halogen so the answer is 35-40 watts.
