ELEKTRISK KOPPLINGSANORDNING MED MINST ETT URLADDNINGSROR

摘要

The invention relates to an electric arrangement comprising two series-arranged discharge tubes which are provided with preheatable electrodes and which are stabilized by means of a relatively small ballast. The tubes are shunted by a semi-conductor switching element which operates in the operating condition of the tubes. According to the invention a control circuit of the semi-conductor switching element includes a non-linear circuit element which ensures that the discharge tubes do not ignite before the electrodes are in the warm state.
