CORRECTIVE ACTION
1. No Power to Ballast Check fuses or other causes of power outages.
2. Normal End of Lamp Life Often the simplest procedure is to test the lamp in an adjacent fixture which is known to be
operating properly and then replace as necessary. It should be kept in mind that series ballasts
will occasionally extinguish the adjacent lamp if one is removed.
3. Lamp Loose in Socket Inspect the lamp to see if there is any indication of arcing at center contact button. Tighten
lamp to seat it properly. If base is distorted and will not seat properly in the socket, replace
lamp.
4. Optical & Other Sensing Devices Inoperative Replace sensing device. (Check this by covering sensing device to block out light while power is
applied to fixture.)
5. Defective or Improper Wiring Examine wiring to ensure it conforms with wiring diagram on the ballast label. Check primary
wiring to ballast and from ballast to socket to establish circuit continuity. Check connections to
see that they are secure. Check for under-sizing of wire gauge, resulting in lowered voltage.
Repair circuit.
6. Voltage at Fixture Too Low Measure line voltage at input of ballast. For most types of ballasts, measured line voltage
should be within 10% of label rating. With many types of distribution systems, increased
loading or demand decreases available voltage at the ballast primary. Therefore, ideally, a
check should be made at full load. If tapped ballast, match ballast tap connection to supply
voltage measured at ballast. Increase supply voltage if feasible. Verify that lamp to remote
ballast distance is acceptable.
7. Incompatible Ballasting Correct ballasting is essential for dependable HID lamp operation. Any HID lamp will perform
erratically or fail to start on an incorrect ballast. Make sure that the ballast label data agrees
with the line voltage and lamp used. Incorrect ballasting will generally cause a lamp to fail
prematurely.
8. Defective Shorted Ballast A shorted ballast will generally cause the seals at the end of the arc tube to rupture with an
indicative blackening in the seal ring area. Shorted condition may be due to shorted
capacitors, shorted leads or shorted winding. Replace components as required.
9. Improper Lamp Operating Position The operating position should agree with the lamp specifications. A BU-HOR lamp can
(Metal Halide Only) be operated base up, vertical to, and including the horizontal, and BD can be operated base
down, vertical to, approaching, but not including the horizontal. A lamp operated beyond the
specified position may not start and degrade lamp performance if it does start.
10. Lamp Has Been Operating : When HID lamps are operating and the supply voltage is cut or interrupted, the lamps will
require a period of time to cool and re-establish optimum starting conditions. Bare mercury
and metal halide lamps require from four to eight minutes cool down time. High pressure
sodium lamps require approximately one minute to cool before restriking. In a luminaire,
restart time varies with the degree of ventilation built into it, ambient temperature, and draft
conditions. The time from cool to restartable condition can realistically range up to 20 minutes
for mercury and metal halide lamps in tight luminaires.
11. High Restrike Voltage (Metal Halide Only) This condition is peculiar to the metal halide lamp. It does not occur with mercury. If the
Cool Down Time Insufficient (Hot Restrike) supply voltage to a metal halide lamp is interrupted during the warm up period, the subsequent
restrike voltage (voltage required to restart the lamp) may be higher than that required for a
lamp which has been allowed to stabilize (come up to full output normally) or to cool down to
normal room temperature.
12. Improper Ballast for Lamp Environmental conditions such as extreme temperatures, high humidity and other factors
Operating Conditions affect ballast operation. Check lamp environmental operating conditions against published
performance.
13. End of Ballast Life The appearance or condition of a ballast may give a clue to whether it is good or not. If it is
charred, it may have been subjected to sustained excessive heat. Swollen capacitors indicate
trouble. Check with appropriate testers, ammeter, and voltmeter. Frequently, the failure mode
of a ballast is capacitor failure with consequent low power factor operation and high current.
This leads to overheating of the core and coil and eventual failure.
14. Defective Ignitor Insure that the lamp is good. Disconnect the ignitor and install a specified test lamp. If the test
lamp lights, the ballast is good but the ignitor is not. Replace ignitor. If the test lamp does not
light, the ballast has most likely reached its end of life.
15. Mismatched Ignitor Verify that the ballast and ignitor are matched according to the specifications. Replace if
necessary.
16. Lamp Defects Common defects that require the lamp to be replaced include:
· Arc tube leak · Open welds · Probe or cathode moly electrolysis · Diode or switch shorted ·
Quartz devitrification around rod · Sodium leak · Open diode
