Incandescent Bulbs

Incandescent light bulbs are still the classic, most commonly used bulbs for residential or commercial applications today. But what is incandescent and how do incandescent lights work? Incandescence is the emission of light caused by heating a wire filament until it glows, which is the operating principle behind incandescent light bulbs. It is the original form of electric lighting and has been in use for over 100 years. The lighting industry’s long experience with the production of incandescent light bulbs explains their popularity. They are less expensive due to lower initial cost, easier to dim and install and available in almost any shapes, sizes and applications.
