‘This type of lamp is also called SOX. It produces light of 5-6 Low Pressure Sodium Lamp ee ELECTRICAL LIGHTING MAT sodium characteristics monochromatic deep yellow color. This is not applicable for general lighting purposes because of its very high efficacy over 150 lumens per watt including ballast loss. It can be used wherever color is not an important criteria. SOX is widely used on streets, roads, area lighting and for emergency or after hours indoor lighting. SOX has 100% lu- men maintenance, long life which could last for 18,000 or more hours making it the most economical source in terms of cost per million lumens produced. Choice of Light Source Cost study should be based on: here Annual and life cycle of the lamp Impact on the heating/cooling system Quantity of lumens produced Re-lamping which includes labor Energy cost Capital investment 5-7 Tungsten-Halogen Lamp The Tungsten-Halogen Lamp is popularly called Quartz Lamp. It is a special type of incandescent lamp. One advantage it has over the normal incandescent lamp 1s its ability to main- tain a constant level of light output thr: The life span of a quartz lamp is ab: that of the normal incan of experiments made, 13% oughout its life out three to four times descent lamp. According, to the result of its wattage. produces light and i it was proven after suffi- 87 ces heat. Comparatively, It : te ee of use that the quartz lamp has longer life and more efficient than the incandescent lamp. 474ELECTRICAL LAYOUT AND ESTIMATE lodine vapor FIGURE §-14 TUNGSTEN-HALOGEN LAMP OR QUARTZ LAMP.

Lampholders are either cord or box-mounted sockets for the incandescent lamps or wiring strips for the fluorescent Jamps which is provided with wiring channel and mounting for the ballast. Aside from holding the lamp and connecting it to the power supply it is also designed to protect the lamp itself. Some lampholders are even provided with reflectors and others are designed for focusing the light. ee ee fe = =F ae SP} SS ess q te raider a we Swivel joint socket mountea —_ PrOP Cord Keyless lamphoider for Porcelain tampholder, in ‘outet box mounting, pull chain, grounded’ 0” metal outlet box cover FIGURE 5-16 LAMPHOLDERS Ceiling ine Egq crate louver bee 16" - 24" FIGURE 5-17 LIGHTING REFLECTORS AND DIFFUSERS 173
