ELECTRODE UNIT IN HIGH PRESSURE DISCHARGE LAMP

摘要

A combined cermet rod and electrode unit for use in a high pressure discharge lamp comprising a cermet rod for connection at its distal end to an electrode tip of the high pressure discharge lamp, and a current supply electrode for forming an electrical connection with the cermet rod. The current supply electrode is formed with a hollow tubular section which is positioned around a proximal end of the cermet rod in physical and electrical contact therewith.
