A ballast system for, and a method of, controlling illumination of a lamp, include a dimmer switch having an actu-ator settable at different settings corresponding to different output voltages across the dimmer switch, a dimming electronic ballast operatively connected to an electrical power source and to the dimmer switch for dimming the lamp upon setting of the actuator, and a shutdown circuit, preferably provided in the ballast, for measuring the output voltages across the dimmer switch, and for au-tomatically powering the ballast off and, in turn, for turning the lamp off when one of the voltages measured by the shutdown cir-cuit does not exceed a reference voltage that corresponds to one of the settings of the actuator.

Linvention concerne un système de ballast et un procédé de commande de léclairage dune lampe, comprenant un interrupteur à gradation de lumière comportant un actionneur pouvant être réglé à différents réglages correspondant à différentes tensions de sortie dans linterrupteur à gradation de lumière, un ballast électronique de gradation connecté de façon opérationnelle à une source dalimentation électrique et un interrupteur à gradation de lumière pour la gradation de la lampe lors du réglage de lactionneur, et un circuit dinterruption, de préférence prévu dans le ballaste, pour mesurer les tensions de sortie aux bornes de linterrupteur à gradation de lumière, et pour mettre automatiquement le ballaste hors tension et, en retour, pour éteindre la lampe lorsque lune des tensions mesurées par le circuit dinterruption ne dépasse pas une tension de référence qui correspond à lun des réglages de lactionneur.
