How to install a LED TL T8 tube with an electronic ballast.

The installation of LED TL tubes is very easy. All LED tubes are ‘plug and play’, this means that you can easily install them yourself and replace them 1 to 1 with your current TL tubes. If you are in doubt whether you are authorized to do so, always contact a certified installer. Always follow the rules for installing electrical devices.

Replacing a TL tube for a LED TL tube is easy, just follow these 4 steps:

• Step 1.
  Make sure that the power is switched off. Before you replace a lamp the power must be switched off. For extra safety, you can convert the switch in the meter cupboard.


• Step 2.
  Turn the old fluorescent tube a quarter turn, this way the TL tube comes loose from the fixture and you can remove it.


• Step 3.
  Take the new LED tube and push the lamp straight into the lamp feet of the fixture. Turn it again a quarter turn until you feel the lamp is in place.


• Step 4.
  Turn the power back on and start saving energy and money immediately.
