  2. Electrical ballast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_ballast

    [1] [3] To prevent this, fluorescent tubes are connected to the power line through a ballast. The ballast adds positive impedance (AC resistance) to the circuit to counteract the negative resistance of the tube, limiting the current. [1] Several American magnetic ballasts for fluorescent lamps. The top is a rapid start series autoregulator ...

  3. T5 retrofit conversion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T5_retrofit_conversion

    T5 retrofit conversion can maintain existing lighting levels with the higher efficiency of the T5 lamp. However, with kits that operates the lamp on the existing magnetic ballast, the efficiency drops and the lamp life is considerably shortened, as T5 lamps aren't designed to be operated on mains frequency but only on high frequency.

    These ballasts convert the incoming power to an output frequency in excess of 20 kHz. This increases lamp efficiency. [45] These ballasts operate with voltages that can be almost 600 volts, requiring some consideration in housing design, and can cause a minor limitation in the length of the wire leads from the ballast to the lamp ends.

  6. Circuit diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circuit_diagram

    A circuit diagram (or: wiring diagram, electrical diagram, elementary diagram, electronic schematic) is a graphical representation of an electrical circuit. A pictorial circuit diagram uses simple images of components, while a schematic diagram shows the components and interconnections of the circuit using standardized symbolic representations.

  7. Compact fluorescent lamp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compact_fluorescent_lamp

    The adapter consists of a regular bulb screw, the ballast itself and a clip for the lamp's connector. Non-integrated bi-pin double-turn CFL with G24d plug-in base An electronic ballast and permanently attached tube in an integrated CFL. CFLs have two main components: a magnetic or electronic ballast and a gas-filled tube (also called bulb or ...

  8. Wiring diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiring_diagram

    An automotive wiring diagram, showing useful information such as crimp connection locations and wire colors. These details may not be so easily found on a more schematic drawing. A wiring diagram is a simplified conventional pictorial representation of an electrical circuit. It shows the components of the circuit as simplified shapes, and the ...

  9. Short-circuit test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Short-circuit_test

    A short-circuit test for determination of transformer impedance and losses is carried out with relatively low power applied to the transformer, and with winding currents of the same magnitude as in operation.
