Advance 71A5492001D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Advance 71A5492001D ballast run my 150W metal halide lamp?
It will if the lamp carries ANSI code M102 or M142. The Advance 71A5492001D is a 150W magnetic HID ballast built for a single metal halide lamp, pulse start type. Match the ANSI code printed on the lamp to M102/142 before wiring it in; a probe start 150W lamp with a different ANSI designation is not the right pairing for this ballast.
2) Can this 150W metal halide ballast be wired on 277 volts, or do I need a different model for each voltage?
One part covers four voltages. The Advance 71A5492001D is a quad-voltage ballast rated 120/208/240/277V at 60 Hz, so the same unit goes into a 120V retail circuit or a 277V commercial lighting panel depending on which input lead you land. That is why it is called a quad kit, and it means a facility running mixed voltages can stock one ballast instead of four.
3) Is this ballast approved for a commercial job that requires UL and CSA?
It carries UL, a CSA certificate, and is RoHS compliant, with Class P thermal protection built in. Class P means an internal thermal cutout opens if the windings overheat and resets when they cool, which is what an inspector looks for on a ballast mounted inside an enclosed fixture. Country of origin is USA if the spec on your job calls for domestic sourcing.
4) Will this metal halide ballast fit inside my existing pole-top or wall pack housing?
The core-and-coil measures 3.94 x 3.60 x 2.81 inches and weighs 7.75 lbs. Check those three numbers against the tray or channel in your fixture, and confirm the housing can carry the weight on its mounting studs. Magnetic HID ballasts are heavy compared to electronic units, so a fixture that previously held an electronic ballast may not have the mounting to take 7.75 lbs.
5) Does a quad kit ballast include the capacitor, or do I order that separately?
The kit is specified with a 16 MFD capacitor. When you replace a failed HID ballast, the capacitor is the other half of the circuit and a weak one will make a new core-and-coil look faulty, so match 16 MFD if you are reusing or replacing that component. Ignitor and capacitor are part of what makes this a pulse start assembly rather than a bare transformer.
6) Can I put this 150W ballast on a dimmer or an occupancy sensor for energy savings?
No. This magnetic HID ballast is not dimmable, and it runs at a ballast factor of 1, meaning full rated lamp lumens with no output adjustment. Metal halide also needs a restrike cooldown after any interruption, so switching it on motion is a bad application. If you need dimming or instant restrike on those fixtures, the answer is an LED retrofit, not a different magnetic ballast.
7) How do I order the exact Advance 150W quad ballast, and what part number do I give my supplier?
Order it by the Advance manufacturer part number 71A5492001D. That single number covers the 150W metal halide, M102/142, quad-voltage kit, so there is no separate voltage or finish selection to make. Property managers standardizing a site can spec that one number across every 150W metal halide head regardless of which voltage each building runs.
8) What is the power factor on this 150W HID ballast, and does it matter for my panel loading?
Rated power factor is 0.9, which puts it in the high power factor class. For a contractor sizing a branch circuit feeding a row of area lights, high power factor means lower input current per fixture than a low power factor ballast at the same 150 watts, so you get more heads on a circuit. Worth confirming against the load schedule if you are replacing older low-PF gear.
9) Can I use this ballast in an outdoor parking lot fixture?
Yes, outdoor area lighting is one of its intended uses, along with warehouses, industrial bays, retail and office interiors, and street lighting. The ballast itself is not weatherproof on its own; it relies on the fixture housing for the enclosure, so it goes inside a rated outdoor luminaire rather than being mounted in the open.
