Incandescent lamps do not require a choke because they operate on the principle of heating a filament to produce light. Unlike fluorescent or LED lamps, which need a ballast or driver to regulate current and voltage, incandescent bulbs draw a relatively stable current directly from the electrical supply. This simplicity allows them to function efficiently without additional components like a choke.
What else can I help you with?
A PS30 incandescent lamp has an overall maximum diameter of?
A PS30 incandescent lamp typically has an overall maximum diameter of around 3.75 inches.
Why is an incandescent lamp cool to the touch when it gives off heat?
An incandescent lamp is not cool to the touch unless it is an extremely low wattage. Heat given off by incandescent lamps is one of the drawbacks of the lamp. Total overall efficiency is reduced by the wasted heat.
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.
What is equal to 60 watt in CFL?
If the question is what wattage compact fluorescent (CFL) lamp has a similar light output to an incandescent lamp of a given wattage, the ratio is usually about 4. A 60W incandescent can be replaced by an 13-15 W CFL lamp. A 60W CFL lamp can replace a 300W incandescent lamp.
Light frequency from an incandescent lamp depends on what?
The light frequency from an incandescent lamp depends on the temperature of the filament. As the filament heats up, it emits a broad spectrum of light that includes all visible frequencies.
What can an incandescent test lamp is used to check?
An incandescent lamp can be used to check continuity of a circuit.
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.
What light sources emits only a continuous spectrum a. hydrogen gas b. mercury lamp c. sodium lamp d. incandescent lamp e. laser?
d. incandescent lamp
Is CO2 emitted by incandescent bulb?
No, carbon dioxide is not emitted by an incandescent lamp.
What is another word for light bulb?
Incandescent lamp
A PS30 incandescent lamp has an overall maximum diameter of?
A PS30 incandescent lamp typically has an overall maximum diameter of around 3.75 inches.
Why was the incandescent lamp not used in homes?
The incandescent lamps are very frequently used in all the buildings !
What was the first name of the light bulb?
The Incandescent Lamp
Who was rewarded for his patent incandescent lamp?
Alexander Lodygin

What type of energy is converted in an incandescent lamp?
Electric energy is converted into light and heat energy in an incandescent lamp. The electric current passing through the filament of the lamp heats it up, causing it to emit light as well as heat.
