Product Description

The G E LIGHTING 93129788 is a 15-watt LED T8 U-shaped lamp designed as a direct retrofit for 32-watt T8 and 40-watt T12 fluorescent U-bend fixtures. Also referenced as LED15UT8-UB-3CC-LT, this lamp delivers 1800 lumens and offers three selectable color temperatures: 4000K, 5000K, and 6500K, making it adaptable to a range of commercial and institutional lighting applications. With a rated life of 36000 hours, it reduces relamping frequency significantly compared to the fluorescent lamps it replaces. Licensed electricians and lighting maintenance contractors are the typical installers for this product.

This lamp is suited for recessed troffers, shop lights, and industrial strip fixtures that accept U-bend T8 or T12 lamps. It is compatible with electronic T8 ballasts and both electronic and magnetic T12 ballasts, eliminating the need for ballast replacement in most retrofit scenarios. The maximum overall length (MOL) is 22.5 inches. The lamp is non-dimmable and intended for standard on/off switching only. It meets CEC (California Energy Commission) compliance requirements, making it suitable for California commercial installations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes. De-energize the fixture and verify power is off at the circuit breaker before handling any lamp or ballast connections. Because this lamp is non-dimmable, confirm the circuit uses a standard on/off switch and not a dimmer control before installation. Verify ballast type and compatibility before completing the retrofit.
