During restoration of electrical power after a brief power outage, which of the following types of lighting takes the least time to attain full brilliance?
Incandescent lighting attains full brilliance almost instantly upon being powered. This makes it a reliable choice for areas where immediate illumination is required following a power outage. Other lighting types, such as metal halide and sodium vapor, take longer to reach full brightness due to the warming up of gases.
