How to wire a Fluorescent Tube Light
Fluorescent tube light are widely use in office,residential area,and more. This lights are so efficient,long life span and low cost. To glow these fluorescent light, you need to know how to wire it. So let's do wiring about fluorescent light.
This is a schematic of fluorescent tube light. Before doing wiring, you need to know the component and its function.
A) Fluorescent Tube Light
This tube light will glow when cathode gives sparks the tube,mercury vapor emit UV light that not visible to human eye.To make the UV light to visible light,phosphor coating along the tube help to drop UV light into visible light.
B) Input Power/Power Source
Power the tube light
C) Starter Holder
Hold the starter to power up the light
D) Starter
Fire up the light in safe way to light up the tube. If the starter spoil,Replace new one to power up.
E) Capacitor
Store and release current and stabilize power factor.
F) Cathode
Emit spark
G) Ballast/Choke
Increase and stabilize current
Wiring Of Fluorescent Tube Light
This is the wiring of the tube light. When the switch on, the capacitor is power and current goes through the ballast. The ballast will send the current to the tube light holder and glow the Tube Light.The current goes to the starter and fire up to light the light and the current goes to the nutral and complete the loop.
Fault in Fluorescent Tube Light
There's is easy way to find the fault and fix it. Here some common fault and ways to fix it.
1) Lamp flickering too long.
Solution : Replace starter and tube light
2) Lamp won't power on.
Solution : Check the power source and replace ballast or capacitor.
3) Lamp won't turn on
Solution : Replace start,tube holder (incase fault in it) and starter.
4) Lamp glow low
Solution : Replace ballast(maybe tube light)
