The invention concerns an electronic connection device for a discharge lamp, comprising a drive circuit supplying a high-frequency current, a choke device Lp/Ls which has its primary winding Lp between the drive circuit and the lamp, and a condenser Cs in parallel with the lamp. The peak value of the drive circuit current is limited to a certain threshold value Ik which is essentially independent of the frequency of the current. The secondary winding Ls of the choke device is connected to the current circuit which has a connection or a connection device S which after the predetermined time T required by the incandescence of the lamp electrodes is put into an open or a current-restricting condition. <IMAGE>
