Which lamp aspect does colour temperature describe?

  • A.The intensity
  • B.The temperature of the filament, which is expressed in kelvin and determines the colour of the light emitted by it
  • C.The apparent whiteness or blueness of the light
  • D.The operating temperature of the lamp, which determines the life of the filament and therefore the service interval

Answer: C

Colour temperature in kelvin describes the tint, with higher figures appearing bluer. For a filament lamp it genuinely is the actual filament temperature, which makes the last option correct for incandescent sources specifically. Reading the definition literally, rather than recalling a summary, avoids the usual confusion. Naming the cost of a choice alongside its benefit is what turns a fact into a design decision.
