ABSTRACT:
A sealed lamp unit for a fluorescent lamp system includes first and second lamp electrodes located at respective end points of the sealed lamp unit. The lamp electrodes extend into the sealed lamp unit. A first lead wire extends into the sealed lamp unit. A first extended wire connection has a first end electrically connected to the first lamp electrode and a second end electrically connected to the first lead wire. A first capacitive impedance, electrically connected in series between the first and second ends of the first extended wire connection, limits a current flow through the first extended wire connection. A breakdown voltage path within the sealed lamp unit is modified as a function of a position of the first lead wire.
