First Class Double Tube Light Connection With Choke And Starter
This volt will capable of to break the electrons inside the tube to make electron flow.
Double tube light connection with choke and starter. The choke alone will continue to remain in the circuit after ignition. When power is applied to the light current flows through the the heaters at the end of the tube s to volatilise some of the mercury in the tube. So the gas becomes electrically conductive medium.
A choke is connected in one end of the tube light and a starter is in series with the circuit. This creates light however the heat from the bulb causes. After a second or two the contacts in the starter open and the current through the choke drops to zero.
The starter is made up of a discharbe bulb with two electrodes next to it. When supply is provided the starter will interrupt the supply cycle of ac. When an ac voltage is applied to a tube light fixture the voltage passes through the choke the starter and the filaments of the tube.
When electricity passes through it an electrical arc is created between the two electrodes. The filaments light up and instantly warm up the tube. When we connect the ac supply voltage to the circuit then the starter act like short circuited and current flow through those filament located at the first and second end of the tube light and the filament generate heat and it ionized the gas mercury vapor in the fluorescent tube lamp.
The choke and starter combination is to generate a momentary high voltage pulse in the fluorescent tube light to ignite the and commence the connectivity between the two end electrodes. This principle of the choke is exploited in lighting a fluorescent tube light. The filament light up and instantly warm up the tube the starter is made up of a discharge bulb with two electrodes next to it when electricity passes through it.
Due to the sudden change of supply the chock will generate around 1000volts. At the same time when the starter opened the circuit path of two filaments from series connected then the ballast release its stored voltage. Starter and choke are older technology but still being used.
