Tube Light Connection Diagram
What is a Tube Light?
Tube light or fluorescent light is a lamp that works on low-pressure mercury vapor discharge phenomenon and converts ultra-violate rays into visible rays with the help of phosphor coated inside a glass tube. It uses fluorescence to produce white light. It is an energy-efficient, longer-life tube, heat emission is less in these tubes. Tube lights are the most used light source.
Here in this article, we are going to explain a tube light connection circuit and wiring diagram. The connection of the tube light is very simple because it has few wiring points only. The connection diagram shown here is suitable for common-type fluorescent tube lights.
Electronic Ballast Tube Light Wiring Diagram
As we can see, we need tube light, ballast, starter, and fluorescent light holders to make the wiring connection. The fluorescent tube has two filaments with four terminals the ballast is connected between the main Ac supply and one filament in the tube light, the starter is connected between two filaments. Here another terminal in the tube light is directly connected to the AC supply, starter element is used in the tube light to ionize the mercury atoms. The starter or glow starter placed parallel to the tube filament contains a small neon lamp with fixed contact, a bimetallic strip, and a small capacitor. The starter provides a current flow path to the filament of the tube at the initial time. It becomes inactive after the gas ionization and current flow in the tube. The ballast is employed to convert the AC supply frequency to high frequency, and it regulates the supply given to the tube light.
Electronic ballast choke tube light wiring is simple as normal tube light, here we don’t need to have a starter element we can directly connect the electronic choke or electronic ballast to the main power supply. And then output terminals to the tube light right and left holder that’s it. Take extra care and safety measures while handling high AC supply.
