Abstract
An electronic starter for a gas discharge, preferably fluorescent, lamp (LA) has a dc source, inverter with half-bridges (Q1,2), a load of lamp and series resonant circuit. A control (1) operates on the switches during ignition to give a stepwise increase in switching time and monitors the load current, briefly opening the switches if a threshold is exceeded. An Independent claim is also given for a process of operation as above.
