ABSTRACT:
A tubular gaseous discharge lamp such as an ultraviolet or fluorescent lamp is provided which includes a hollow cylinder which is connected to a pair of end caps on each of which there is mounted an electrode. The first electrode is connected to an insulated or Teflon coated wire which is disposed along the outside surface of the cylinder and passes through the end cap which supports the second electrode. The second electrode is connected to a second insulated or Teflon coated wire which projects from the second end cap. The wires facilitate connection of the ultraviolet lamp to a source of electrical power which is located at one end of the lamp.
In an alternative embodiment of the invention two or more ultraviolet lamps are inserted into a hollow quartz tube, thereby providing an ultraviolet light source of extended length, or two or more fluorescent lamps may be used in single end application.
