How do you release the wire from a fluorescent tube lamp holder?

Where the wire is held in the holder you will see a small round hole. Insert a small nail into it and push inward. This will release the spring that holds the wire. Pull on the wire and it will come out. Now you can release the pressure on the small nail to let the internal spring return to its original position.

How does 4 tube fluorescent work?
A four tube fluorescent luminaire is just 4 separate fluorescent lamp circuits in one fitting. Look up 'how things work' etc to see a fluorescent lamp circuit.
What are six main component of a fluorescent lamp tube light?

Why does your fluresant light not work after you installed a ballast?
Do you have the right ballast for the type of lamps you are using? Check on the nameplate of the ballast to see it matches with the type of tubes you are using. Are the tubes snug in the lamp holders? Is the fluorescent fixture grounded using the fixture ground screw? Do you have voltage to the ballast? On most lamp start ups you can see the lamp filament glow on each end of the tube. If you don't see the filament glow on any of the tube ends, check the wires going to that lamp holder.
Does a fluorescent bulb specificaly phosphorus reflects ultraviolet radiation.?
There is no phosphorus in a fluorescent lamp, the coating is a compound called phosphor.phosphorus is an element that burns.phosphor is a compound that when excited by an electron beam, UV light, or x-rays glows in visible light.A fluorescent lamp is a mercury vapor UV (aka black light) lamp with a phosphor coating on the inside of the lamp tube to turn the invisible UV light to visible light.
Can you convert fluorescent tube fixture to accept a led light?
No, the fixtures do not have anything is common other that emitting light. If you are talking about removing the fluorescent fixture and installing a new fixture that can take a LED lamp then the answer is yes.

Fluorescent lamp low pressure mercury vapour?
A fluorescent lamp refers to a low pressure mercury-vapor gas-discharge lamp that uses fluorescence in order to produce visible light. It is also called a fluorescent tube.
Can you categorize fluorescent as a tube or a lamp?
The term "lamp" in formal electrical jargon refers to any light bulb. The device that is commonly called a lamp and can be purchased at almost any place in town is called, in official electrical jargon, a cord and plug connected lamp holder. So a "flourescent light bulb" is a lamp. It is also a tube because of the way it appears. So either term applies.
Information on CFL light bulbs?
A compact fluorescent lamp (CFL), also called compact fluorescent light, energy-saving light, and compact fluorescent tube, is a fluorescent lamp designed to replace an incandescent lamp; some types fit into light fixtures formerly used for incandescent lamps. The lamps use a tube which is curved or folded to fit into the space of an incandescent bulb, and a compact electronic ballast in the base of the lamp.
What colors of T12 lamps are available?
T12 lamp ordinarily known as fluorescent lamp or fluorescent tube refers to a gas-discharge lamp that uses electricity to excite vapor. T12 lamp is available in different colors such as light blue, violet, green and red.
What would be the effect on the circuit should the starter be taken out the lamp is started?
Once started the fluorescent tube no longer needs the starter. In fact starters are designed to electrically "remove" themselves from the circuit when the fluorescent tube is conducting.
Can you put a black light bulb in any fluorescent fixture?
Yes a black lamp tube will work in a fluorescent fixture. Guess you don't remember the early 70's.
Is fluorescent light produced by heat?
Not in the way that an incandescent bulb does. A fluorescent lamp uses electricity to excite the particles of mercury vapor in the tube. This excited gas causes a phosphor to glow.

Principle of operation of UV lamp?
A fluorescent lamp or fluorescent tube is a gas-discharge lamp that uses electricity to excite mercury vapor. The excited mercury atoms produce short-wave ultraviolet light that then causes a phosphor to fluoresce, producing visible light. A fluorescent lamp converts electrical power into useful light more efficiently than an incandescent lamp. Lower energy cost typically offsets the higher initial cost of the lamp. The lamp is more costly because it requires a ballast to regulate the flow of current through the lamp.
