Ignore the shape of the lamp’s outer envelope. Technology Pictures No halogen capsule large – filament. Ignore the outer envelope in the picture, as this can be many Incandescent - mains voltage shapes. If frosted envelope such that burner cannot be seen, assume incandescent mains voltage. – Look for halogen capsule at centre of lamp. Ignore the outer envelope in the LHS picture, as this can be Halogen - mains voltage many shapes including candle, reflector, etc. RHS picture is halogen (flood lights). Look for small halogen capsule at centre of lamp. Halogen - low voltage Lamp marked as or “12V” connected to transformer Compact fluorescent - integral ballast Look for fluorescent tube Compact fluorescent - separate ballast Note pin cap Linear fluorescent Circular fluorescent Typically have a cluster of LED diodes Heat Lamp Typically very large 3.
