Satco Lighting S38939 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does the Satco S38939 temporary hi-bay work light need a socket, or does it plug in?
It plugs in. The S38939 ships with an integrated cord, a 3-prong plug and a hook, so it hangs from joists, scaffold or rebar and goes straight into a 120V receptacle or a string. No lampholder or fixture is needed.
2) How many of these 60W Satco construction string lights can I run on one 20A circuit?
Each unit draws 0.500A at 120V, 50-60Hz. On a 20A branch circuit loaded to the usual 80 percent continuous limit (16A), that is roughly 32 lamps on paper; derate for the cord/string rating and any other load on the circuit before you build the run.
3) Can I hang this Satco caged work light outside on a jobsite?
No. The S38939 is rated for indoor, damp locations only. It will handle an unconditioned interior, a parking structure or a humid basement, but not direct rain or standing exposure. For open exterior work you need a wet-location rated temporary light.
4) Is the Satco S38939 bright enough to replace the 300W incandescent cage lights we use for temporary lighting?
Yes, that is the swap it is built for. At 60 watts it puts out 6000 lumens and is rated as a 300W incandescent equivalent, so you get the same light at a fifth of the load, which is what lets you put more fixtures on a temp circuit.
5) What kind of light spread does this temporary hi-bay give, and will it light a whole bay from the ceiling?
The beam spread is 300 degrees, so it throws nearly all the way around the corncob-shaped lamp body rather than down in a cone. Hung from the hook it lights the floor and the surrounding walls, which is what you want for general construction illumination. For task lighting aimed at one surface, a directional flood is the better tool.
6) Can I put the Satco S38939 construction light on a dimmer or a 3-way switch?
No on both counts. It is non-dimmable and not three-way capable, so it runs full output only. Wiring it to a dimmer can damage the driver. Switch it on standard line-voltage circuits.
7) How durable is this caged temporary light for repeated jobsite use?
The body is plastic and steel construction in an orange/white housing that stays visible in a dim space, with a frosted polystyrene lens behind the cage to cut glare. Rated life is 50,000 hours. The cage and the hook are the parts doing the work when it gets knocked or dragged between floors.
8) Will the Satco S38939 qualify for a utility rebate on our LED retrofit project?
Not through DLC-based programs. The S38939 is not DLC listed, which is the qualification most utility prescriptive rebates key on for LED. It is a temporary construction light rather than a permanent high bay, so treat it as jobsite equipment, not a rebate-eligible retrofit fixture. It is FCC compliant and lawful for sale in California.
9) What color light does this Satco work light put out, and is the color temperature selectable?
Fixed 5000K daylight white, with a CRI of 80. There is no CCT selector switch, so every unit you order matches the next one, which is what you want when you are lighting a long run or a whole floor consistently.
