Rab T5HE-13-48G-840-SD-BYP Led T5HE Tube 13W 4 Foot 4000K

Product Description

The RAB T5HE-13-48G-840-SD-BYP is a T5HE-base LED linear tube designed to replace fluorescent T5HE lamps in ballast-bypass retrofits. Running at 13 watts, it delivers 1800 lumens at a 4000K correlated color temperature with an 80 CRI rating, making it well-suited for commercial and industrial lighting upgrades where neutral-white output and energy reduction are priorities. The glass construction provides durability consistent with direct-wire applications. Electricians and lighting contractors install this tube as part of a ballast-bypass conversion, eliminating the existing ballast from the circuit entirely.

This tube is intended for 4-foot T5HE fixture housings in single-ended or double-ended wiring configurations. The dual-ended bypass compatibility gives installers flexibility to wire line voltage to either one or both ends of the lamp holder, depending on fixture type and local wiring practice. Typical applications include commercial offices, retail spaces, warehouses, schools, and other facilities converting existing T5HE fluorescent fixtures to LED to reduce energy consumption and maintenance costs.

Key Features

• 13-watt input power replacing standard T5HE fluorescent lamps
• 1800 lumens output at 4000K neutral white color temperature
• 80 CRI for accurate color rendering in work and retail environments
• Glass tube construction for a traditional lamp profile
• Single-ended and double-ended ballast-bypass compatible for installation flexibility
• Direct-wire design eliminates ballast, reducing ongoing maintenance

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-wire ballast-bypass replacement for T5HE fluorescent lamps in standard 4-foot T5HE fixture housings supporting single-ended or double-ended wiring configurations.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a licensed electrician performing a ballast-bypass conversion in accordance with NEC guidelines and the fixture manufacturer's wiring instructions. Disconnect and de-energize the fixture completely before removing the existing ballast and rewiring lamp holders to accept line voltage. Verify that the fixture's lamp holders are compatible with direct-wire LED tubes before completing the installation. Do not install this tube in a fixture with an active ballast still in the circuit.
