TESTING OF FLUORESCENT LAMP

AIM: To study and test Fluorescent lamp with given kit.

Apparatus Required:

S.NO DESCRIPTION NO. OF REQUIREMENTS


01 TESTING OF INCANDESCENT LAMP AND 01
FLUORESCENT LAMP KIT
02 FLUORESCENT LAMP 01
03 STARTER 01
04 CHOKE 01
05 POWER GUARD 01
06 PATCH CORDS AS REQ.

THEORY:
FLUORESCENT LAMPS:

Tube is made of glass with fluorescent powder coating to its inner surface .Tungsten filaments
coated with barium oxide are placed at each side of tube. The mercury vapors with small quantity
of argon gas at low pressure is filled up in the tube .Bi-pin caps are provided to its both ends for
fixing the tube in holder.

When fluorescent tube is connect to supply through choke and tube starter, about 4 times
to supply voltage, the voltage about 1000 volt is induced. Due to this filaments discharge the
gas on heating and provide path for the flow of electrons as gas after discharge acts as a conductor
.Mercury Vapors are vaporized and give full light.

The function of fluorescent powder coating is to change UV rays into light rays. It is
available in different length and wattage and some common sizes are 20 watt(2ft),40 watt(4ft)
Choke:- It is designed by providing number of turns of winding wire on laminated core.
Its function is to induced surge about four times voltage with respect to supply voltage

Tube starter:-Its function is like a ON-OFF switch to complete the circuit .There are
two types of tube starter:

CONNECTION DIAGRAM

PROCEDURE:

STEP 01: Connect circuit as per connection diagram.

STEP 02: Now, Slowly increase the Variac transformer. [Note: Voltage, Current, Power
and Power factor through MFM]

STEP 03: Increase the steps of Variac in steps of 20V to 30V, until the rated voltage is
obtained.
At each step, note the readings of the Voltage, current and power.

STEP 04: Repeat the STEP 03 for decreasing the output voltage from rated voltage to zero volts.

STEP 05: Plot Graph between Voltage and current.

TABULATION:
