ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a relay starter for a discharge lamp wherein the lamp is stabilized by a series arrangement of at least an inductor and a capacitance. Also included in series with these stabilization elements and the lamp is an energizing winding of a relay having a normally-closed contact disposed in a circuit which shunts the lamp.
A diode is also disposed in the circuit which shunts the lamp, so that if the lamp does not ignite, current flows for a short period of time through the diode which thereby charges the capacitor. When this capacitor has received a sufficient charge no further current flows either in the lamp circuit or in the shunting circuit so that the entire circuit is put out of operation.
