What is the purpose of starter and choke in tube light?

Answer Posted / khalidshaikh

WHEN TUBE LIGHT IS SWITCHED ON CURRENT FLOWS IN CLOSED
CIRCUIT BETWEEN, CHOWK,BOTH ELECTRODES OF TUBE AND STARTER.
IN CLOSED CIRCUIT FOR A WHILE SELF INDUCTANCE IS PRODUCED
IN CHOWK AND ABOUT 1000 VOLTS INDUCED ACROSS CHOWK, AT THE
SAME INSTANCE STARTER CONTANCTS BECOM OPEN AND INDUCED
VOLTAGE APPERED AT THE TUBE, AND DUE TO THIS HIGH VOLTAGE
CURRENT STARTS FLOWING FROM THE GAS OF THE TUBE AND TUBE
BECOME BRILLIANT/ GLOWING. AFTER THAT STARTER REMAIN OPEN
CIRCUIT TILL NEXT OPERATION OF TUBE LIGHT, AND CHOWK WORK
AS VOLTAGE DROPING DEVICE UP TO 110 V AC.
