Abstract

The invention relates to a device for monitoring the serviceability of an incandescent lamp (1) connected to a power source (2) by means of leads (3,4), it being possible to check the continuity of the circuit at low power in the switched-off state, without any visible effect on the incandescent lamp (1), and/or by confirming an energy flow in the switched-on state. In order to be able to differentiate between circuit continuity resulting from a short-circuit or shunt circuit and the continuity of the circuit when the incandescent lamp is operated during such a test, and to exclude the possibility of a positive test result despite a defective incandescent lamp, the ratio of the resistance of the arrangement when the incandescent lamp (1) is in the switched-off state to the resistance of the arrangement when the incandescent lamp (1) is in the switched-on state is determined and is compared with the ratio of the cold-hot resistance which is applicable to the respective incandescent lamp (1) to be monitored, taking into account the lead conditions, to output a report for the monitoring result. <IMAGE>
