A light source device with a mercury lamp, in the case of formation of a bridging short circuit of the gap between the electrodes of the discharge lamp caused by mercury, to prevent the light source device from no longer being usable because the difference between a defective device and one with such a bridging short circuit cannot be ascertained, has a means for determining that a bridging short circuit has formed in the gap between the electrodes. Furthermore, various manners for eliminating the bridging short circuit are provided including those that make use of vibration, heat, dielectric discharge or Lorenz forces.
