With the development of the times, fluorescent lamps have gradually replaced the status of incandescent lamps. It has become the trend of modern lamps. However, as a lighting tool, fluorescent lamps also have potential safety hazards. Let’s take a look at the causes of fires caused by fluorescent lamps . And its installation precautions! fluorescent lamp First, the cause of fire caused by fluorescent lamps 1, the ballast quality is poor Some ballasts have not undergone rigorous inspection or self-winding ballasts at the factory. Due to the coarseness of the ballast, the quality is poor, such as: insufficient number of coils, insufficient insulation capacity, too small wire diameter, too small core area, space clearance Too big, silicon steel sheets are not tightly inserted, and so on. These tend to cause the ballast to generate heat and generate high temperatures, which may damage the insulation, melt the asphalt and overflow from the inside of the case, forming a short circuit and causing a fire. 2, the ballast is not properly installed The ballast is not matched with the power of the fluorescent tube, the contact between the contacts is not strong, the ballast is close to the ceiling and other combustible materials are installed, and the ventilation and heat dissipation conditions of the installation part are very poor. Thus, on the one hand, the ballast is prone to heat, on the other hand The heat is not easily dissipated, so that a large amount of heat is generated, a high temperature is formed, and combustible materials are burned to cause a fire. 3, improper use The power supply voltage of the fluorescent lamp is too high, and the overload will cause the ballast to generate high temperature. The continuous use of the fluorescent lamp for too long or the fluorescent lamp being turned on and off too frequently may cause the ballast to generate high temperature or even cause a fire. Fluorescent lamp causes fire 4, poor maintenance A large amount of combustible dust, wood chips, etc. are accumulated on the fluorescent lamp ballast. If the ballast generates high temperature, it will be burnt by the coke; if the ballast is wet or influent, the insulation capacity of the coil will be reduced, and even the short circuit will catch fire. These are caused by poor maintenance. Second, the installation of fluorescent lamps 1. First, the most basic requirement for lamp installation is that it must be firm. When installing indoor headlights, desk lamps, mirror headlights, floor lamps, wall lamps, etc., the height of the lamp is less than 24m and below. The metal casing of the lamp should be grounded reliably to ensure safe use. A grounding conductor should also be added to the light box at the time of wiring. 2, when decorating the flat top to install all kinds of lamps, it should be installed according to the requirements of the installation instructions of the lamps. Moreover, the dark lines inside the ceiling or siding must be protected by a flame-retardant casing. When the weight of the luminaire is more than 3kg, the pre-embedded hook should be used or the overhead sling should be directly fixed from the roof. The wire from the lamp box is protected by a hose to the lamp position to prevent the wire from being exposed in the flat top. 3, when the bathroom and the kitchen are equipped with low-footed lamp holders, it is advisable to use a porcelain screw-shaped short-footed lamp head. The wiring and phase line of the screw cap should be connected to the center contact terminal, and the neutral wire should be connected to the screw terminal. The most important and basic part of the installation process is the lamp head with a switch, such as a desk lamp. For safety reasons, the opening handle should not have a bare metal part.
