Abstract: A LED tube includes a translucent or fluorescent tube of substantially the shape and size of a fluorescence tube, inside which one or more LED components and a current control unit are installed. At both ends of the LED tube, there is a pair of contact pins for connecting the light element mechanically and electrically to the tube holders of the fluorescence tube lighting fixture. The tube lamp has a safety unit arranged to prevent a voltage from transferring through the tube lamp from its one end to the other until a voltage supplied from the corresponding tube holder of the lighting fixture to the pair of contact pins has been separately detected at each end of the tube lamp. Inside the LED tube, there is at least one optical line that is arranged to transfer a control or measurement signal associated with the safety unit from one end of the LED tube to the other without capacitive leakage currents.

Abstract: A LED tube (41) comprises one or more LED components (34) and a current control unit (33) installed therein. Both ends of the LED tube (41) are provided with a contact pin pair (37, 38, 39, 40) for connecting the LED tube mechanically and electrically to tube holders of a fluorescent tube lighting fixture. The LED tube includes a safety unit (42, 43, S1) arranged to prevent a voltage from passing through the LED tube (41) from its one end to the other end thereof until at both ends of the LED tube, a voltage (U1, U2) fed from the corresponding tube holder of the lighting fixture to the contact pin pair (37, 38, 39, 40) has been detected separately.

Abstract: A LED tube includes a substantially fluorescent-tube-shaped and fluorescent-tube-sized translucent or fluorescent tube having one or more LED components and a current control unit installed therein. Both ends of the LED tube are provided with a pair of contact pins for connecting the LED tube mechanically and electrically to the tube holders of the fluorescent tube lighting fixture. The tube has a safety unit arranged to prevent a voltage from transferring through the tube from its one end to the other until a voltage supplied from the corresponding tube holder of the lighting fixture to the pair of contact pins has been detected at each end of the tube separately. Electric power or switching control of electric power is cross-connected between the ends of the LED tube.

Abstract: A LED tubular lamp comprising a translucent tube (30) of the shape and size of a fluorescence tube with a contact pin pair (37, 38, 39, 40) at both ends thereof for connecting a LED tube mechanically and electrically to the tube holders of the fluorescent tube lighting fixture. LED components (32) and a current control unit (33, 34) are installed inside the LED tube. The LED tubular lamp also comprises a voltage level sensor circuit (42, 43) that is arranged to detect automatically a voltage difference in the contact pin pair at least at one end of the tube and to determine from the voltage difference brightness and/or colour control information for the current control unit (33, 34) of the LED components.

Abstract: An arrangement in connection with a coupling device of a fluorescent lamp, the coupling device comprising a supply transformer, whose secondary is coupled in parallel with a fluorescent tube, the arrangement comprising an indicator circuit configured to indicate the working condition of the fluorescent lamp. The arrangement comprises a signal transformer comprising a first primary coil, to which an alternating voltage signal supply is coupled, a secondary coil, coupled as part of a current path generated by cathodes of the fluorescent lamp and a secondary of the supply transformer and configured to supply alternating current to said current path, the indicator circuit comprising transformer members configured to generate a signal responsive to the alternating current of the current circuit.

Abstract: A method and an arrangement in connection with a control gear arranged to control two parallel-connected fluorescent tubes, and a control gear, whereby the parallel-connected fluorescent tubes are fed using a single control gear in common, which comprises control arrangement arranged to provide output current for the control gear in response to a current reference.
