For linear Preheat and Rapid Start Lamps, four elec-
trical contacts are required, two at each end of the
lamp. This is accomplished in the standard line of
lamps by the use of a miniature bipin base for T5
lamps and a medium bipin for T8 and T12 lamps.
The OCTRON
operated as instant start lamps with the proper wiring
and ballasts. When operating OCTRON bipin lamps
with instant start ballasts, the two contacts in the
lamp holder are shorted together and connected to
the single circuit in the ballast. In Circline lamps, the
cathodes are connected to a four-pin base located
between the junction of the two ends of the lamp.
High Output (HO) and Very High Output (VHO) lamps
have recessed double contact (RDC) type bases.
Slimline Instant Start lamps require only two electri-
cal contacts, one on each lamp end and have single
pin bases.
Pin-based compact fluorescent lamps have either 2
pins or 4 pins. Each 2-pin lamp has an internal
starter and is designed for preheat, magnetic opera-
tion. The 4-pin lamps are designed for electronic bal-
last operation and are dimmable. These lamps have
no internal starter; starting the lamps is a function of
the ballast.
Medium screw base, compact fluorescent lamps have
integral ballasts.
