What are the applications of sodium vapour lamp?
Low-pressure sodium lamps : outdoor lighting
What is hpsv lamp?
High Pressure Sodium Vapour Lamps
Which type of lamp has the highest inrush current between halogen neon incandescent and low-pressure sodium?
Halogen lamps typically have the highest inrush current among the options mentioned. This is because they contain a tungsten filament that has a lower resistance when cold, causing a surge in current when first turned on. Neon, incandescent, and low-pressure sodium lamps have lower inrush currents compared to halogen lamps.
What alkali metal is used in street lights?
Sodium (chem symbol = Na) Mercury vapor is also used in street lights. Low pressure sodium vapor street lights are amber/yellow in color, high pressure sodium lights are white and mercury vapor lights glow blueish white.
Why sodium vapuor lamps are used as street lights instead of simple white tube lights?
High pressure sodium lamps take a while to fully light up, however they are very energy efficient and save the council money.
What are the different types of light?
Incandescent Lamps Light Emitting Diode Neon Lamps Fluorescent Tubes Compact Fluorescent Lamps Halogen Lamps Metal Halide Lamps High Intensity Discharge Lamps Low Pressure Sodium Lamps High Pressure Sodium Lamps
Can a high pressure sodium lamp be dimmed and what are the effects?
Sodium lamps can be dimmed but we shall have to look at the effect of low voltage on lamps
What is the difference between high and low pressure mercury lamps?
how are low pressure mercury lights made and how do they operate?

Is argon gas a part of a high pressure sodium lamp?
From Wikipedia, high pressure sodium lamps use xenon, whilst low pressure ones use neon with a small amount of argon. See entry for 'sodium vapor lamps'
What has the author CN Beadsworth written?
