2. Fluorescent-lamp formats - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorescent-lamp_formats

   Fluorescent lamps in various embodiments. Since their introduction as a commercial product in 1939, many different types of fluorescent lamp have been introduced. Systematic nomenclature identifies mass-market lamps as to overall shape, power rating, length, color, and other electrical and illuminating characteristics.

4. Incandescent light bulb - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incandescent_light_bulb

   An incandescent light bulb, incandescent lamp or incandescent light globe is an electric light with a filament that is heated until it glows. The filament is enclosed in a glass bulb that is either evacuated or filled with inert gas to protect the filament from oxidation. Electric current is supplied to the filament by terminals or wires ...

5. Bi-pin lamp base - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bi-pin_lamp_base

   The suffix after the G indicates the pin spread; the G dates to the use of Glass for the original bulbs. GU usually also indicates that the lamp provides a mechanism for physical support by the luminaire: in some cases, each pin has a short section of larger diameter at the end (sometimes described as a "peg" rather than a "pin" [2]); the socket allows the bulb to lock into place by twisting ...

6. Electrical resistance and conductance - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_resistance_and...

   Also called chordal or DC resistance This corresponds to the usual definition of resistance; the voltage divided by the current R s t a t i c = V I. {\displaystyle R_{\mathrm {static} }={V \over I}.} It is the slope of the line (chord) from the origin through the point on the curve. Static resistance determines the power dissipation in an electrical component. Points on the current–voltage ...

7. A-series light bulb - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A-series_light_bulb

   The most commonly used A-series light bulb type is an A60 bulb [7] (or its inch-based equivalent, the A19 bulb [2] [4]), which is 60 mm (19 ⁄ 8 in or 2 + 3 ⁄ 8 in) wide at its widest point [3] and approximately 110 mm (4 + 3 ⁄ 8 in) in length. [8] Other sizes with a data sheet in IEC 60064 are A50, A55, A67, A68, A71, A75, and A80.

8. Ohm's law - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ohm's_law

   Ohm explained his experimental results by a slightly more complex equation than the modern form above (see § History below). In physics, the term Ohm's law is also used to refer to various generalizations of the law; for example the vector form of the law used in electromagnetics and material science:

9. Voltage drop - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage_drop

   Consider a direct-current circuit with a nine-volt DC source; three resistors of 67 ohms, 100 ohms, and 470 ohms; and a light bulb—all connected in series. The DC source, the conductors (wires), the resistors, and the light bulb (the load) all have resistance; all use and dissipate supplied energy to some degree. Their physical ...
