what happens when the supply frequency to the tube light is
reduced to 25Hz....?

Answer Posted / mohandas

The choke is designed to generate a particular amount of high voltage when the starter contact breaks the supply to the choke. This high voltage discharges through the filament and in turn ionises the gas in the fluorescent tube. However when you reduce the frequency to 25Hz the high voltage produced by the choke will reduce considerably which may be insufficient to ionise the gas and the tube may not glow.
However if the frequency is reduced when the tube is already on and working the tube will continue to glow but with less luminosity.

Dear all, I just want to ask an expert on this forum for some insights. For the magnetic balance test, when applied voltage on a Delta-Star transformer e.g. Dyn11, the following relationships apply for HV side: 1.  H1-H2 = H2-H3 H3-H1 2.  H2-H3 = H3-H1 H1-H2 3.  H3-H1 = H1-H2 H2-H3 For the LV side also: 4.  X1-X0 = X2-X0 X3-X0 5.  X2-X0 = X3-X0 X1-X0 6.  X3-X0 = X1-X0 X2-X0 Is there a similar pattern for Y-d, Y-Y, D-d? And how about Y-z, D-z, Z-y transformers? I've tested a YNzn5 transformer and for LV side I don't see the pattern. In this particular case I got for LV side the following (see values below): H1-H0  H2-H0  H3-H0    X0-X1  X0-X2  X0-X3 128.0  119.9  7.2      29.2   13.3   15.8 70.7   128.4  59.2     23.4   22.0   3.6 7.2    120.1  128.1    13.4   29.3   15.8 What is the relationship here for LV? For row 1 I see the relationship, for row 3 I also see but it's shifted, but for row 2 I don't see such relationship. Any suggestions, answers, someone?
