Satco Lighting S8756 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does the Satco S8756 LED PL lamp need the existing ballast removed?
Yes. The S8756 is a Type B ballast bypass lamp, so it wires direct to line voltage and the existing ballast has to be removed or bypassed. It runs on 120V through 277V at 50/60Hz, so it works on either common commercial circuit. If you leave the ballast in place, the lamp will not operate correctly.
2) Can I put the Satco S8756 in an enclosed fixture like a shower can or a vapor-tight?
Yes, it's an enclosed rated lamp, so sealed and gasketed fixtures are fine. It also carries a universal burning position, meaning base up, base down, or horizontal all work. That combination is what makes it usable in stairwell jars, shower trims, and wall packs without worrying about heat trapping or orientation.
3) Will the Satco S8756 work on a dimmer switch?
No. The 8W LED PL lamp is non-dimmable and is not three-way. Put it on a dimmed circuit and you risk flicker, buzz, or early failure. For those openings you need a lamp specifically listed as dimmable; leave the S8756 for switched on/off circuits.
4) What incandescent wattage does the 8W Satco S8756 replace, and how bright is it?
It replaces a 40W incandescent, putting out 920 lumens on 8 watts. Current draw runs 0.067A at 120V down to 0.029A at 277V, so a long run of these adds very little load to a branch circuit compared to the fluorescent PL lamps they replace.
5) Will the Satco S8756 match the color of the other lamps in my building?
It's 3000K warm white with an 83 CRI, and the color temperature is fixed, not field selectable. If the rest of your fixtures are 3500K or 4000K, this one will read noticeably warmer side by side, so order the matching CCT for a whole-floor relamp.
6) Can I spec the Satco S8756 on a federal job or a utility rebate program?
Not for those. This lamp is not BAA compliant and is not DLC listed, so it won't satisfy Buy American requirements or DLC-based utility rebates. It is FCC compliant. For government work with domestic-content rules, you need a BAA compliant lamp instead.
7) Can the Satco S8756 be sold and installed in California?
No. The S8756 is flagged non-compliant for California, so it should not be specified for projects in that state. Everywhere else it's a straightforward 120-277V line voltage lamp.
8) Is the light from the S8756 PL lamp spotty or spread out?
It throws a 120 degree beam through a frosted lens, so the output is wide and diffused rather than directional. That suits downlights, jars, and sconces where you want even coverage instead of a beam. The housing is white.
9) How long will these LED PL lamps last before maintenance has to relamp again?
Rated at 50,000 average hours. On a stairwell or corridor burning roughly 12 hours a day, that's a long relamp cycle compared with the fluorescent PL lamps most of these fixtures started with, which is the main reason property managers convert to Type B and pull the ballasts out entirely.
