Philips Lighting 913710635601 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can this HID ballast be wired for 120V or 277V?
Both. The 913710635601 is a dual-voltage 120/277V core and coil at 60 Hz, so one unit covers either line voltage on the shelf. Nominal input current is 0.58A on 120V and 0.25A on 277V, and nominal input power is 67W. Wire to the tap that matches your supply - it is not an auto-sensing electronic ballast.
2) Does the Philips 50W core and coil HID ballast come with the capacitor and ignitor, or do I order those separately?
The kit ships with matched components: a 7C060L30RA capacitor rated 6 MFD, 280V, 105 degrees C, and an LI533-H4 ignitor also rated 105 degrees C. If you are only replacing a failed capacitor in an existing fixture, those are the catalog numbers to match. The capacitor case measures 1.25 in across the oval and 2.75 in high, which matters when you are fitting it back into a tight ballast tray.
3) Can I mount this ballast remotely from the fixture, and how far away?
Remote wiring is allowed, with a maximum ballast-to-lamp distance of 10 feet. That covers a pole-base or accessible-ceiling ballast box feeding a fixture overhead. Beyond 10 feet you will see starting problems, so pick a different remote-rated ballast for longer runs.
4) Is this Philips HID ballast rated for outdoor fixtures like wall packs and site lighting?
Yes, it is marked suitable for outdoor use and built with UL Class H insulation rated to 180 degrees C, with a temperature marking of A/A. It is UL Recognized (ULR mark), which means it is a component intended to be installed inside a listed fixture or an enclosure - it is not a standalone weatherproof assembly. Housing still has to provide the enclosure.
5) What does an HX-HPF ballast circuit mean for my metal halide install?
HX-HPF is a high-reactance, high-power-factor magnetic circuit. On the 913710635601 that gives a 0.9 nominal power factor, so line current stays low enough to put more fixtures on a branch circuit than a normal-power-factor unit would allow. Lamp wattage regulation is looser than a CWA ballast: constant wattage deviation is 10 percent, meaning lamp output will move somewhat as line voltage swings. Ballast factor is 1.
6) What fuse size should I use on this 50W metal halide ballast?
Philips lists a recommended fuse value of 3/2 A, meaning 3A on the 120V side and 2A on 277V. Size the in-line fuse to the tap you actually land on. Starting current is 0.46A at 120V and 0.2A at 277V, with open-circuit input current up to 1.2A / 0.51A, so those ratings cover strike and lamp-out conditions.
7) Will this metal halide ballast restrike a hot lamp right after a power blip?
No. Automatic restart is not a feature of this core and coil, so after a momentary outage the lamp has to cool before it will strike again, typically several minutes. For a building where lighting has to come back instantly after a dip, plan on instant-restrike lamp and ballast equipment or keep emergency egress fixtures on a separate source.
8) What is the core size and weight of this Philips core and coil ballast for fitting into an existing tray?
Core size is 3 x 4 with 2 coils, and net weight is 2.201 kg per piece. Base model designation is 71A5181, ordered as CORE & COIL HID 71A5181001D. Check those against the label on the unit you are pulling out - core and coil ballasts mount on stud spacing tied to that core size.
9) How do I bench-test this HID ballast to confirm it is good?
Open circuit voltage should read 254V nominal, with an acceptable test range of 228 to 280V. Secondary short circuit current should fall between 0.7 and 0.88 A, and short circuit input current between 0.42 and 0.65 A on 120V or 0.16 to 0.27 A on 277V. Factory hipot values are 2000 V for one minute and 2500 V for two seconds. Readings well outside those bands point at a failed winding rather than a bad lamp.
10) How long are the leads on the Philips 913710635601 ballast?
Leads are 12 inches of stranded wire, stripped 0.5 mm. Twelve inches reaches comfortably inside most wall pack and canopy ballast trays, but if you are landing in a remote box at the far side of a pole base, plan on splicing rather than stretching.
11) Is this ballast sold as a single unit or in a multi-pack?
One ballast per pack, one pack per outer box, so ordering a quantity of one gets you a single core and coil with its matched capacitor and ignitor. Good for one-off fixture repairs as well as stocking a maintenance shelf.
