ABSTRACT:
HID lamp has a spring-loaded safety switch positioned between the outer protective envelope and the arc tube and electrically connected in series with one of the lamp electrodes. When the lamp is operating normally, the safety switch is maintained in the closed position, but if the outer envelope is accidentally broken, the switch automatically opens to break the lamp energizing circuit and render the lamp inoperative.
