How do you know if your outside lamp post has a sensor or a photo cell?
To determine if your outside lamp post has a sensor or a photo cell, check for a small device or lens on the lamp that detects light levels. A photo cell typically adjusts the light based on ambient light conditions, turning on at dusk and off at dawn. If the lamp has a motion sensor, it will activate when it detects movement, regardless of the surrounding light. You can also refer to the lamp's specifications or manual for details on its features.
How do you replace a mercury vapor light sensor?
Most Mercury Vapor Lamp Fixtures have a PLUG IN module on top of the fixture. Most are about the size of an inverted "shot glass" and have a photocell "eye" somewhere on the outside surface. Typically, you turn the Module counterclockwise to "unlock" the module from the socket and pull the module UP and off the top of the lamp fixture. Failure mode for these Light Sensors are twofold: Either [ 1 ] the electric eye's lens gets cloudy and the light stays on unless it is VERY sunny....or [ 2 ] the Module, being mounted ABOVE the light fixture gets HOT...and over the years the module gets COOKED and fails. Take the light sensor with you to an electrical supply house and match it up with a new one !! BYW: Inspect the socket and plug of the Light Sensor module & lamp fixture. Often the "cooked module" will fail because of socket/plug failure. The plug/socket Phenolic materials break down from the heat over the years . Or the contacts corrode. NOTE: It is important , when installing the Light fixture...that the plug-in Light Sensor' photocell lens is pointing AWAY from the building or other mounting structure. If the "electric eye' is facing the structure..the reflected light will confuse the light sensor and the lamp will come on DIM[*] , flicker or turn off & on constantly. [ * ] Do not confuse the " comes on DIM " statement with the normal DIM warmup cycle of the lamp. It is also advised to have the High Output Merury Vapor LIght on a dedicated electrical circuit. If you are using an existing circuit for outside-the-house loads..... such things like pool pumps etc will extinguish the lamp when the pump kicks in.. The pump's heavy inductive load in-rush current on startup will cause the lamp to go out..... in a few minutes the lamp will restart, warm up and come back at full intensity.
What is lamp circuit?
A lamp circuit is an electrical circuit designed to power a lamp, allowing it to produce light. It typically consists of a power source, such as a battery or mains electricity, connected to a light bulb through a switch and wiring. The circuit can be simple, with just a switch and a bulb, or more complex, incorporating dimmers or smart controls. When the circuit is closed by the switch, electricity flows to the lamp, illuminating it.
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.
What energy does the lamp have?
The lamp has electrical energy, which is converted to light energy when the lamp is turned on.
How a lava lamp works with no light?
Lave lamp is modern teconology of the ago and it work with no light because it is running always

What controls the light bulb and the heat in an incubator?
It is usually controlled by a computer, controlling the intensity of a heating lamp bulb, based on a temperature sensor built within connecting to the computer (for expensive incubators, that is.)

2002 Mercury Sable autolamp sensor?
My auto lamp light sensor is not working on my Mercury Sable 2002. Why?
Where is the daytime running lamp sensor usually located in a Vehicle?
I have an Impala, and the sensor is located on the top of the dash, near the defroster vent opening. (for the windshield)
Where is the brake light failure sensor located on a 1998 accord?
The brake light failure sensor is located at the back of the left rear lamp assembly behind the trunk liner. It is a square circuit board about 2" x 2" connected by a wire pigtail to the main left rear brake and running lights.
How do you make a light bulb light up if the power comes from a generator?
You put the light bulb into a light fixture or lamp and plug the lamp into the running generator's electrical outlet. Make sure the generator's circuitbreaker is reset.
How can I adjust the brightness of a lamp using a dimmer?
You can adjust the brightness of a lamp using a dimmer by turning the dimmer switch up or down to increase or decrease the flow of electricity to the lamp, which controls the amount of light it emits.

What does it mean when the brake lamp light is illuminated on the dash of a 99 Honda Accord?
IT USUALLY MEANS LOW BRAKE FLUID. JOSE It means the brake lamp sensor has detected a burned out bulb. This can also happen if you disconnect your high mount brake lamp to connect the circuit to a spoiler mounted brake light without changing the sensor. -- dws
Your daytime running lights will not turn off when switched to Parking lamp mode What is the problem?
If you are trying to do this during the day the ambient light sensor tells the car that drl needs to be on. If you are doing it at night then either your sensor or bcm is bad. Go to ez performance and get their gm drl delete switch.
