Rated at 17 watts, it delivers 2200 lumens at a 5000K color temperature, making it well-suited for high-visibility commercial and industrial environments where cool, daylight-quality light is required. The tube is constructed with a glass envelope and carries an 80 CRI rating. It supports both single-ended and double-ended wiring configurations, giving electricians flexibility when retrofitting existing fluorescent fixtures without a ballast.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis T8 bypass tube is appropriate for use in troffer, strip, and wraparound fixtures in commercial, industrial, and institutional settings. Ballast-bypass installations eliminate the ballast as a point of failure, reducing long-term maintenance overhead. The single\/double-ended compatibility allows the installer to choose the wiring method that best fits the fixture layout and local code requirements. Licensed electricians typically perform this retrofit work, and it is well-suited for lighting upgrade projects in warehouses, offices, parking structures, and similar applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e17-watt input power with 2200-lumen output for efficient T8 fluorescent replacement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5000K color temperature provides daylight-quality illumination suitable for task and ambient lighting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e80 CRI rating supports accurate color rendering in work environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGlass tube construction for a traditional T8 form factor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle-ended and double-ended ballast-bypass wiring support for installation flexibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEliminates ballast dependency, reducing fixture maintenance and energy loss\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a ballast-bypass replacement for standard 4-foot T8 fluorescent fixtures using G13 bi-pin lamp holders in single-ended or double-ended wiring configurations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with NEC requirements and all applicable local codes. Before beginning any wiring work, de-energize the circuit at the breaker and verify the absence of voltage with a meter. The existing ballast must be removed or bypassed per the manufacturer wiring diagram, and fixture tombstones must be confirmed as non-shunted or shunted depending on the wiring method selected. Do not install on an active ballast, as this is a bypass-only product.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWattage\u003c\/strong\u003e: 17 watts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLumen Output\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2200 lumens\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5000K\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCRI\u003c\/strong\u003e: 80\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTube Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: T8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTube Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4 feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnvelope Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Glass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWiring Configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single-ended and double-ended ballast bypass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: RAB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: T8-17-48G-850-SD-BYP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"RAB","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51383429202226,"sku":"T8-17-48G-850-SD-BYP","price":29.36,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/312673665.png?v=1782596298","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/rab-t8-17-48g-850-sd-byp-led-t8-tube-17w-2200lm-5000k-bypass","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
