Philips Lighting 71A7971001D HPS Core & Coil Ballast Kit, 70W Quad-Tap, 120/208/240/277V
The Philips Lighting 71A7971001D is a core & coil ballast kit engineered for 70W High Pressure Sodium (HPS) lamps, built to the ANSI S62 standard for reliable lamp-to-ballast compatibility. This quad-tap kit operates across 120/208/240/277V input, giving electricians the flexibility to match the ballast to whatever supply voltage is available at the fixture without stocking a separate part number for every voltage. The kit ships complete with a dry film capacitor, ignitor, and mounting hardware, so the full electrical assembly needed to power a 70W HPS lamp arrives in a single package ready for installation in the fixture housing.
Key Features
- Lamp Wattage: Designed and matched for 70W HPS lamps for accurate, code-compliant lamp-to-ballast operation.
- Quad-Tap Voltage: Operates on 120/208/240/277V input, letting a single ballast kit serve multiple supply voltages found in commercial and industrial buildings.
- Core & Coil Construction: Core and coil ballast design delivers dependable, consistent lamp starting and steady-state operation.
- Dry Film Capacitor Included: Factory-matched dry film capacitor supports proper power factor correction within the ballast circuit.
- Ignitor Included: Integrated ignitor supplies the high-voltage starting pulse required to strike the 70W HPS lamp.
- Mounting Hardware Included: Complete mounting hardware is included, simplifying installation into the existing fixture housing.
- ANSI S62 Rated: Manufactured to the ANSI S62 specification governing HPS lamp and ballast circuit performance.
- Complete Kit: Ballast, capacitor, ignitor, and mounting hardware are packaged together as one replacement kit.

Why Philips Lighting?
Philips Lighting builds this core & coil ballast kit around a dry film capacitor and a matched ignitor, giving contractors a complete, ANSI S62-compliant replacement in a single kit instead of sourcing components separately. The quad-tap 120/208/240/277V design reduces the number of ballast SKUs a facility needs to stock for its 70W HPS fixtures, while the included mounting hardware keeps installation straightforward for lighting retrofits, repairs, and new fixture builds.
