how fluoresent lamp works??

Answer Posted / imran khan

For fluoroscent fixtures/lamps direct supply is not
provided so choke and startes comes into play.

Startes : as the name suggests works momentarily at the
starting time ..used to build up high voltage of about 800
to 1000 volts for ionising the gas in the lamp once gas is
ionised it disconnects from the ckt.

Choke : It is used to limit the current value as
fluoroscent fixtures r not direct feed from the supply.

I want to put this query to SENIOR & EXPERIENCED ELECTRICAL ENGINEERS. 1)I want to know about the control circuit diagrams for control panels. I found it difficult to understand. Is there ant booklet through which we can learn the circuit diagrams? 2)I want to learn about conduiting, laying cables, preparing cable schedules and various techniques which is the part of building infrastucture(construction field). I don't have any experience in this area. I have experience in control panels only. that's why i am not getting any opening in building infrastucture (construction field).Can I get the job in this field as Trainee Engineer? How to enter this field? I need job in PUNE

Some times to change of DOR of a motor, interchange of R & B is not effected and RYB take same current, but interchange of R&Y is effected ie change the DOR. My doubt is what is the problem in motor and how it is happen.
