Incandescent light bulb
The incandescent light bulb (also spelled lightbulb) or incandescent lamp is a source of artificial
light that works by
incandescence. An
electrical current passes through a thin
filament, heating it until it produces light. The enclosing glass bulb prevents the
oxygen in air from reaching the hot filament, which otherwise would be destroyed rapidly by oxidation. Incandescent bulbs are also called electric lamps, a term originally applied to the original
arc lamps, and in
Australia they are commonly called light globes.
