What else can I help you with?
Where can a circuit with two lamps with single pole switch fluorescent lamp with two 2 way and an intermediate control can be used?
This type of circuit would never be used. The two way fluorescent system would depend on the voltage being supplied by the two lamp circuit switch. If the switch turns off the two lamp circuit the rest of the circuit with the fluorescent fixture would become inoperable.
What type of a ballast do compact fluorescent lamps use?
Compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs) use electronic ballasts, which regulate the flow of current to the lamp. These ballasts provide benefits such as improved energy efficiency, reduced flicker, and a quieter operation compared to magnetic ballasts.
How many volts should I be reading at a fluorescent bulb?
The voltage present on the secondary side of the ballast (transformer) varies as to the type of fluorescent tube or bulb that is in the fixture. The voltage will always be higher that the applied line voltage that supplies the ballast.If the fluorescent bulb screws into a lamp type of fixture, then there is no way to measure the voltage at the bulb as the tube and ballast are a combined sealed unit.
What is a lamp board?
A lamp board is a type of control panel used in theatrical lighting to control and display the status of individual lights, typically using buttons or switches to control the power to each lamp. It allows lighting technicians to easily manage and monitor the lighting setup for a performance or event.
What is the swirly light bulb called?
The swirly light bulb is called a compact fluorescent lamp (CFL). It is a type of energy-efficient light bulb that produces light by using electricity to excite the gas inside the bulb to create illumination.
Where can a circuit with two lamps with single pole switch fluorescent lamp with two 2 way and an intermediate control can be used?
This type of circuit would never be used. The two way fluorescent system would depend on the voltage being supplied by the two lamp circuit switch. If the switch turns off the two lamp circuit the rest of the circuit with the fluorescent fixture would become inoperable.
What is the most common fluorescent lamp found in an exterior commercial sign?
The most common fluorescent lamp found in an exterior commercial sign will be a high output DC recessed base lamp. The ballast will be a zero degree type to allow it to ignite the tube in cold weather down to 0 degrees F.
What is the function of the light switch on a microscope?
The light switch on a microscope is used to control the intensity of the light source. It allows the user to adjust the brightness of the light passing through the specimen to optimize the viewing conditions for better clarity and contrast.
What is the type of lamp uses with dimmer switch?
You cannot use most fluorescent lights with a dimmer. Just about any incandescent bulb WILL work with a dimmer. Occasionally, when a halogen bulb burns out, it will destroy a dimmer switch but halogen bulbs are considered incandescent and other than that little problem they work well with a dimmer.
Can i use a fluorescent cool white bulb in a regular desk lamp if not what type of lamp?
I take it you are referring to a screw in compact fluorescent lamp, am I right? If it screws in the socket and does not touch the metal with the glass part then it was made for the lamp. To see various size CFL lamps for lamps for any light socket visit Bright Commercial Lighting Facebook page. Order the size that will fit your lamp to see better and save energy to.
Where is fan control switch located?
Depending on what type of fan, the fan control switch can be located on the wall for a ceiling fan. Each type of fan will have a different location for the fan control switch.
What type of a ballast do compact fluorescent lamps use?
Compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs) use electronic ballasts, which regulate the flow of current to the lamp. These ballasts provide benefits such as improved energy efficiency, reduced flicker, and a quieter operation compared to magnetic ballasts.
Can lamp work only on ac?
Depends. Lamps can certainly be built to work on either AC, or DC, or both. But some lamps, particularly those with electronics in them, either a dimmable lamp, or a fluorescent lamp, may only work with one type of electricity.
What is the type of gas in an arc lamp?
The type of gas commonly used in an arc lamp is typically a noble gas such as xenon or mercury vapor. These gases are chosen for their ability to produce a bright and steady light when an electric current is passed through them in the lamp.
What type of fluorescent lamp is commonly used in an exterior sign?
A high output lamp with a dc recessed base connected to a high output -10 degree ballast. Anything else will not work properly in cold weather.
How many volts should I be reading at a fluorescent bulb?

What is an electric lamp?
The term "electric lamp" is a general one. It refers to a slice of technology that produces light from electricity, and how it does this can vary. The two basic types of lamp are the incandescent type and the fluorescent type. There are other types, like a light emitting diode type, which is solid state kind, and a carbon arc lamp, but we usually use the term for the two common types mentioned. Sometimes we use the term to include the whole fixture. A table lamp might be referred to as an electric lamp in some cases. But as regards the "regular" usage, the lamp will work in one of two ways. In one, a resistive element which will heated by the electric current to the point of incandescence, where it will emit light. The filament gets really hot and glows, and you already know that this describes the incandescent lamp. In the fluorescent lamp, a gas-filled tube it electrified and the gas is ionized with the subsequent emission of light. This is the fluorescent lamp, and many of them are set up with secondary emission characteristics to increase and/or change the spectrum of light emitted.
