Electrical Lamp Information
A lamp is a replaceable component such as an incandescent light bulb, which is designed to produce light from electricity. These components usually have a base of ceramic, metal, glass or plastic, which makes an electrical connection in the socket of a light fixture. This connection may be made with a screw-thread base, two metal pins, two metal caps or a bayonet cap. Re-lamping is the replacement of only the removable lamp in a light fixture.
Lamp circuit symbols
In circuit diagrams lamps usually are shown as symbols. There are two main types of symbols, these are:
|
|
|
The cross in a circle, which usually represents a lamp as an indicator.
|
|

|
