In an electronic ballast for at least one fluorescent lamp equipped with heatable electrodes, the heatable electrodes must be adequately preheated before the actual ignition of the fluorescent lamp. Given a high-frequency preheating of the heating electrodes that is usually employed and given the utilization of a frequency shift of the high-frequency of the D.C.-A.C. converter, relatively long preheating times on the order of magnitude of >1.2 second result. In order to be able to significantly reduce the preheating tifme below 1 second, it is proposed that a D.C. path be provided wherein the heating electrtodes are connected in series with the secondary winding at the secondary side of a transformer and to connect this D.C. path to the operating D.C. voltage during the preheating phase via controlled switches.
