Abstract

PURPOSE:To reduce a common line after having an overcurrent protective function by interposing current fuses on both ends of a choke coil to be connected in series to power supply and a discharge lamp. CONSTITUTION:A stabilizer 12 for a discharge lamp has a choke coil 14 and a current fuse 15 is interposed between one end of this choke coil 14 and aforesaid power supply 11, while a current fuse 16 is interposed between the other end of the choke coil 14 and one end of a discharge lamp 13, further on the power supply side, a capacitor 17 and resistor 18 for power factor improvement are connected in parallel to power supply 11. For instance, when an overcurrent flows to a circuit due to a ground fault or the like of the choke coil 14, the current fuse 15 or the current fuse 16 on both ends of the choke coil 14 are melted so that burning of the stabilizer is prevented while checking occurrence of a fire or the like. Further, by interposing the current fuses 15 and 16 on both ends of the choke coil 14, the choke coil 14 can be protected against the overcurrent even when the choke coil 14 and the discharge lamp 13 are connected in series to power supply 11.
