What else can I help you with?
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.
Can we use fluorescent lamp in dc?
Yes, fluorescent lamps may be powered by DC but they need a DC lamp controller instead of an AC ballast and starter. The DC lamp controller is more complex. I have a 12V lantern with fluorescent lamp tubes.
Can an incondescent lamp dimmer be used to control a fluorescent lamp load?
No, incandescent lamp dimmers are not compatible with fluorescent lamps. Fluorescent lamps require special dimming ballasts to control their light output. Attempting to use an incandescent lamp dimmer with a fluorescent lamp can cause damage to the lamp and dimmer.
If the ballast on a fluorescent light blows will the lamp still work?
Typically, if the ballast on a fluorescent light blows, the lamp will not work. The ballast regulates the electrical current to the lamp, so if it is not functioning properly, the lamp will not receive the correct power to light up.
Can you put a fluorescent bulb in your floor lamp?
Yes, you can use a fluorescent bulb in a floor lamp as long as the bulb fits the lamp's socket and wattage requirements. Make sure to check the lamp's specifications to ensure compatibility and consider the lighting quality and intensity of the fluorescent bulb for your needs.

Is lamp to a fluorescent?
Yes, lamp is to fluorescent
What is the necessity of the starter in fluorescent lamp?
When line voltage is applied across the starter, it closes a circuit, connecting the filaments at the ends of the bulb in series so they heat up. Once the Mercury in the lamp is vaporized, the starter breaks the filament circuit, and the ballast provides a voltage pulse to start the current flow down the length of the tube, lighting it. While the bulb is lighted, the voltage across the starter is low and it does not energize the filaments. When you see a fluorescent lamp flashing, the bulb is worn out and the starter keeps vainly trying to start it. Eventually the starter will wear out and will need to be replaced also. Newer fluorescent fixtures have lamps and ballasts that do not require a starter.

What would be the effect on the circuit should the starter be taken out 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.
Why do you use starter for an incandescent lamp?
The starter will send a delayed high voltage electricity to the gas within the fluorescent bulb that cause the gas to be ionized and conduct electricity.
When was fluorescent lamp invented?
Thomas Alva Edison invented fluorescent lamp in 1896

What is the average price of a fluorescent desk lamp?
The average price of a fluorescent desk lamp is about $30. You can buy a fluorescent lamp for as much as $55, or as little as $17. It depends on the brand size of bulbs used in the lamp.
