About 5000 volts.
Additional Explanation of this answer
While the "Striking Voltage" of the Bulb may be 5,000 + volts the bulb actually operates on much less. More like 120V or 200V. If you continued using 5,000 V the bulb would rapidly burn itself out.
The striking voltage is much like a Florescent bulb. The higher voltage is to cause a spark between the gaps or electrodes to ignite the gasses within the bulb regardless of Florescent , High Pressure Mercury or any similar bulb, then the voltage lowers to keep the bulb lit. This is exactly the reason they need a Ballast, Starter or similar device to start the bulb

How do you change operating voltage of metal halide lamp from 240 to 120?
The lamp needs to be rated for the voltage applied to it. The fixture in which the lamp is installed also needs to be rated for the voltage. So, it is not a matter of changing the lamp, it is a matter of having the fixture and lamp that are properly rated for the voltage that you are applying to it.
What is the current on a 60w fluorescent lamp?
To find the current drawn by a 60-watt fluorescent lamp, you can use the formula: current (I) = power (P) / voltage (V). Assuming the lamp operates at a standard voltage of 120 volts, the current would be approximately 0.5 amps (60W / 120V = 0.5A). If the lamp operates at a different voltage, simply adjust the calculation accordingly.
What voltage mercury lamp works?
Mercury lamps typically operate at voltages ranging from 100 volts to 600 volts, depending on the specific type and size of the lamp. The exact operating voltage required will be specified by the manufacturer in the lamp's technical specifications. It is essential to follow the manufacturer's guidelines to ensure safe and optimal performance of the mercury lamp.
Can you plug a 220V. 800Watt lamp into 240V?
Yes, but you will get a higher wattage output than 800 watts, this means that the lamp will glow brighter. This connection will also shorten the life of the lamp because of the higher voltage. When you state "plug", it suggests that the connection will not be made if the plug can not fit into the receptacle.
Can you plug a 250 volt lamp into US outlet?
Yes. If the plug (cap) end of the 250 volt lamp is compatible to the receptacle the lamp would work. The light output of the lamp would not be very bright. Because the working voltage is halved so would the light output.
