Satco Lighting S11952 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can I drop the Satco S11952 18 inch T8 LED into my existing fluorescent fixture without rewiring?
No. The S11952 is a Type B ballast bypass lamp, so the fixture has to be rewired to send line voltage straight to the sockets and the existing fluorescent ballast has to be removed or disconnected. It will not run off a fluorescent ballast. If you want a lamp that drops into an existing ballasted fixture with no wiring work, you need a Type A (ballast compatible) T8 instead.
2) Will the Satco S11952 work on 277 volt commercial circuits?
Yes. It operates across 120V to 277V at 50/60Hz, so the same lamp works on residential 120V and on 277V commercial lighting circuits. Current draw runs 0.058A down to 0.025A depending on where in that voltage range it is fed.
3) Can the Satco S11952 go in a sealed or enclosed fixture, and can it be used in a damp area?
Yes on both counts within limits. It is an enclosed rated lamp, so a gasketed or fully covered fixture is fine, which is where a lot of LED tubes are not permitted. Location rating is damp and it is an indoor lamp, so covered walkways, basements, and bathrooms are acceptable, but direct exposure to rain or weather is not.
4) How much light does an 18 inch 7W LED T8 actually put out compared to what I am replacing?
770 lumens from 7 watts, rated equivalent to a 75 watt incandescent. The frosted glass lens spreads light over a 160 degree beam, so it washes a surface rather than spotlighting. Rated life is 50,000 average hours. For a short 18 inch under-cabinet or display run, that output is in line with the 15 watt fluorescent tubes typically found in that length.
5) Does the Satco S11952 qualify for a utility rebate?
Not through DesignLights Consortium programs. This lamp is not DLC listed, and most commercial utility rebates for linear LED require DLC qualification. It is Title 24 compliant and FCC compliant, so it can be specified on California projects, but plan the job without assuming a rebate.
6) Can I mount the Satco S11952 vertically or in a wall sconce?
Burning position is universal, so the lamp can be run horizontal, vertical, or base up without affecting operation or life. That matters for under cabinet strips, vertical display case mounts, and sign fixtures where a position-restricted lamp would be a problem.
7) Is this LED tube glass or plastic, and does that matter in a food or shop environment?
The lens is glass with a frost finish and the base is a glass and plastic construction. Glass lenses resist scratching and clean up better than polycarbonate, but they will break if struck, so in a warehouse, gym, or food prep area where impact or shatter is a concern, a coated or plastic-lens tube is the safer call.
