The ordinary are light is made by breaking the outside circuit of a Series machine. The carbon tips must be together when the current is started, and the break is made by lifting the upper one a little by a mechanical arrangement. The powerful current, in overcoming the resistance offered by the air, heats the carbon tips to a white heat. In the incandescent lamp the resistance is offered by a filament...
