Advance ICN2S28T35I – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Advance ICN2S28T35I ballast run two F28T5 lamps?
That's exactly what it's built for. The Advance ICN2S28T35I drives two lamps at 28 watts each, T5 rapid start type. It's a two-lamp ballast only, so a single-lamp or three-lamp fixture needs a different unit.
2) Can I use the same F28T5 ballast on 120V and 277V circuits in the same building?
Yes. The ICN2S28T35I accepts any input from 120 to 277 volts at 50 to 60 Hz, so one part number covers 120V branch circuits in a tenant space and 277V lighting circuits in the same facility. That's one SKU to stock for a maintenance crew instead of two.
3) Will this Advance T5 ballast fit inside my fixture channel?
Case dimensions are 14.1701 by 1.2799 by 1.1598 inches, and it weighs 1 pound. Measure the open length of your fixture wireway before ordering, since a 14-plus inch case will not drop into a shorter channel.
4) Can I put this ballast on a dimmer?
No. The ICN2S28T35I is a fixed-output, non-dimming ballast. If the fixture is on a dimming control or you need daylight harvesting, you need a dimming ballast instead; wiring this one to a dimmer will not give you a usable light level range.
5) Can I use this on F54T5HO or F32T8 lamps?
No. It's matched to 28W T5 rapid start lamps, two of them. T5HO lamps such as F54T5HO run a different current and will not operate correctly, and T8 lamps use a different lamp type and socket arrangement entirely. Order a ballast rated for the exact lamp printed on the tube.
6) Programmed start or instant start for T5 lamps in an area with occupancy sensors?
Go programmed start, which is what this Advance unit is. Programmed start preheats the cathodes before striking the arc, so lamps survive frequent on/off cycling. Instant start gets you slightly better efficiency but wears lamps out fast in spaces where sensors are switching them all day, like restrooms, classrooms and corridors.
7) What light output will I get compared to the ballast I'm replacing?
Ballast factor is 1.0, so the lamps run at their full rated lumen output. If you're pulling out a low ballast factor unit the space will read brighter after the swap; if you're matching a 1.0 BF ballast, light levels stay the same. Power factor is 0.98, which keeps line current down on large lighting panels.
8) Is this Advance ballast UL listed for a healthcare or school installation?
It carries both UL and CSA certificates and is RoHS compliant, with Class P thermal protection built in. Class P means an internal thermal cutout opens if the ballast overheats and resets once it cools, which is what most fixture listings require for indoor commercial use.
9) Where is the Advance ICN2S28T35I made, for a Buy American spec?
Country of origin on the ICN2S28T35I is listed as USA. That matters on federal, municipal and some institutional jobs where domestic sourcing is written into the specification.
