Fluorescent lamps require a ballast to stabilize the current through the lamp, and to provide the initial striking voltage required to start the arc discharge. This increases the cost of fluorescent light fixtures, though often one ballast is shared between two or more lamps.
n. a deed to real property which guarantees that the seller owns clear title which can be transferred (conveyed). A grant deed generally is a warranty deed, while a quit claim deed is not. (See: warrant, grant deed)
The warranty deed is the gold standard, the most highly desired form of deed, because in addition to conveying property ownership, it contains the promise of clear title, meaning the property is free of encumbrances.
