what is the function of starter & choke in the tube light
set & how choke give 1000 volts while switching on.

Answer Posted / shahulsnfa

the normal operating voltage of tube light is about 110.
but naturally available voltage is 240v. hence the choke
comes into picture which gives 110v output. but for
initiating the light(to ionise the gas in the tube) the
system system requires 800 - 1000v. to provide this starter
has been used, which block the current flowing from the
choke to light hence the voltage will build up across the
load. once the maximum voltage reached which starter can
withstand, the starter closes the circuit and the builded
voltage applied across tube light.
