(under subclass 307) Systems, wherein the regulating means is responsive to a thermal condition.
(1) Note. The thermal condition may be, for example, (1) the heat generated by the current in the load device circuit flowing through an impedance, or (2) the heat generated by the load device, or (3) the temperature of the atmosphere in which the load device is operating.
(2) Note. This subclass includes ballast resistance devices placed in the circuit of the load device.
