GE Lighting’s high intensity discharge ballasts operate a vast array of high-pressure sodium, quartz metal halide, and ceramic metal halide HID lamps in the market today. HID lamps are similar to fluorescent lamps in that they are gas discharge lamps. The arc tube, made from quartz glass or ceramic materials is located within the ‘jacket’ of the lamp and contains electrodes at either end of the tube. The arc tube generates light when the electrodes at either end of the tube initiate an electrical arc. This excites the pressurized sodium or metal halide gasses causing them to emit light. Like fluorescent lamps, HID lamps require a ballast to operate. The primary role of the ballast is to supply the correct starting and operating voltage to initiate the arc, and to regulate current and voltage to sustain the arc once illuminated.
