This paper discusses the development of electronic ballast for neon lamp as an application of a zero voltage switching high frequency inverter. Abnormal increase of secondary voltage due to grounded fault or partial damage of serial arranged loads is clarified and the protection circuit for this abnormal voltage increase is proposed. Also stable lighting condition for removing the unstable characteristics due to different load conditions is proposed.
