An electronic ballast for a low-pressure discharge lamp (LA) contains an inverter that is fed with direct voltage (UBUS) and the output of which is connected to a load circuit containing terminal contacts for the lamp (LA), a heating transformer that has a primary winding (Tp), which is connected to the output of the inverter, and a respective secondary winding (Ts1, Ts2), which is located in a heating circuit with a coil (W1, W2), for heating each of the two electrodes of the lamp (LA), and a series circuit arrangement that is connected in parallel with the load circuit and which contains the primary winding (Tp) of the heating transformer and an electronic switch arrangement (S3, S4). For the purpose of identifying the type of lamp and the state of the lamp, the currents in one of the two heating circuits and in the primary winding (Tp) of the heating transformer are measured and evaluated. |
