There are a lot of restrictions of electric installations in a high radiation environment. For example longevity of electric devices would be shortened remarkably in a high radiation environment. It becomes impossible also for lighting equipments to keep an original function under a high radiological environment due to deterioration of insulation resistance of ballasts and luminous flux decrease of lamps, etc. The authors developed radiation-resistant lighting. This research aims to verify those functionality and safety under -ray irradiation conditions.
