ABSTRACT:
A hooked arc discharge lamp electrode may be formed with electrodes slanting towards each other and towards the electrode roots. The hooking back of the electrode tips forms a gap between the electrode tip and the electrode shaft that prevents the arc from wandering across. The arc is then confined to a small area from the electrode tip area on the side away from the gap. The arc is prevented from wandering down the electrode shafts away from the optically ideal location, and to a potentially destructive position adjacent the envelope wall.
