The data and suggested

European Directive (2002/95EC on the Restriction of
Hazardous Substances) states that (beyond certain limited
exemptions) electrical and electronic products shall not
contain lead, cadmium, mercury, hexavalent chromium,
polybrominated biphenyls (PBBs), or polybrominated diphenyl
ethers (PBDEs). GE’s electronic ballasts use lead-free solder and
other environmentally preferable materials that meet the RoHS
directive. Although not required in the U.S., RoHS-compliant
ballasts show GE’s commitment to helping our customers meet
their disposal needs now, and in the future. GE encourages
customer awareness on the importance of reducing hazardous
materials and getting ahead of complying with environmental
trends. Look for the RoHS-compliant mark on GE ballasts.

Offered in dedicated or multivolt (120-277V), these highperformance T8 instant start ballasts are long life, less than
10% THD and most models also meet minimum efficiency
requirements of the NEMA Premium® ballast program.

applications should not be
taken as representations
or warranties as to the
suitability of a ballast for a
particular application.

A family of high-efficiency GE T8 instant-start electronic linear
fluorescent ballasts designed to optimize GE’s T8 Ultra lamps
for optimal system energy savings. UltraMax® ballasts have
a lamp-friendly low-lamp-current crest factor and virtually
“read” and adapt to incoming voltage from 108V to 305V. Other
features include UL Type CC Anti-Arc Rating and anti-striation
control to eliminate lamp striations and spiraling. All UltraMax®
ballasts exceed 90% efficiency and the NEMA Premium® ballast
program minimum efficiency requirements.

UltraStart® Electronic Ballast
UltraStart® ballasts are a family of high-efficiency GE
Program Start (see page 36) electronic linear fluorescent
ballasts designed to optimize GE’s T8 and T5 Ultra lamps in
frequently switched applications. Instant Start ballasts provide
approximately 10,000 starts before 50% of lamp failure.
UltraStart® provides greater than 100,000 starts. UltraStart®
have the equivalent energy savings and convenience of
instant start ballasts but with the long lamp life of a
programmed start ballast.
UltraStart® T8 L, N and H ballasts exceed 90% efficiency and
the NEMA Premium® ballast program minimum efficiency
requirements.

Compact Fluorescent Lamp (CFL)
CFLs are single-ended T4 and T5 lamps that are bent to form
a compact shape. Screw-in CFLs have an integral ballast with
a screw base for easy replacement of incandescent lamps. GE
offers multi-voltage, multi-lamp and multi-entry ballasts for a
wide range of CFL plug-in lamps. Multivolt ProLine® CFL ballasts
are designed for plug-in lamps so that a ballast will survive over
the useful life of approximately 3-to-4 lamp lives.

Primarily used for T12 lamps. These ballasts operate lamps at
a less efficient 60Hz and typically have efficiencies of 70-80%.
Most ballasts consist of a core and coil transformer assembly.
Today, magnetic ballasts for 4 foot and 8 foot lamps are typically
used only for replacement purposes and are restricted by EPACT
to be sold, even in replacement applications, starting in 2009.

Multivolt ProLine® CFL Ballast

Sign Ballast

Sign Ballast (Magnetic Ballast)
Designed to operate T12 HO Lamps at 120 volts in cold and
damp conditions in sign cabinets.

GE eHID, Electronic High Intensity
Discharge Ballast (eHID)
Electronic HID significantly improves the performance of HID
lighting. GE’s UltraMax® eHID ballast operates pulse start and
ceramic metal halide lamps.

HID Electromagnetic Ballast Kit

GE High Intensity Discharge Ballast (HID)
HID magnetic ballasts consist of robust core and coil designs
that meet or exceed minimum ANSI requirements. These
ballasts are typically sold as distributor replacement kits which
are pre-wired with a capacitor, ignitor (if applicable) and all
necessary mounting hardware and instructions. Each wattage
is typically offered in quad (MLT-120/208/240/277 volt), 5-tap
(ML5-120/208/240/277/480 volt) or 480 volt (48T) options.

GE Fluorescent Ballast Types

GE introduced the first fluorescent ballast more than 60 years ago. Today we are providing
high-frequency electronic ballasts for almost every fluorescent application.

UltraMax®
A family of high-efficiency GE T8 instant-start electronic linear
fluorescent ballasts designed to optimize GE’s T8 Ultra lamps for
optimal system energy savings. UltraMax® ballasts have a low lamp
current crest factor and virtually “read” and adapt to incoming voltage
from 108V to 305V. Other features include UL Type CC Anti-Arc Rating
and anti-striation control to eliminate lamp striations and spiraling.
These ballasts are offered in ballast factors: low wattage (.77), normal
light (.87), normal-high (N+) (1.0) and high (>1.15).
ProLine®
Offered in dedicated or multi-volt (120-277V), these high-performance
T8 instant-start ballasts also meet minimum efficiency requirements
as established with the NEMA Premium® ballast program. These
ballasts are offered in ballast factors: low wattage (.77), normal light
(.87), and high (>1.15).

Ballast Life
GE electronic ballasts are designed and manufactured to an
average life expectancy of 60,000 hours of operation at maximum
rated case temperatures. As a rule of thumb, ballast life is doubled
for every 10C reduction in ballast case temperature. However
there are other variables such as transients, voltage sags and
swells, ambient temperature, etc., which affect ballast life as well.
Instant Start vs. Rapid Start Sockets
When using programmed start or dimming ballasts in fixtures,
sockets must be 2-pin rapid start type. Fixtures with T8 instant
start ballasts must use jumpered rapid start sockets or shunted
lamp holders (internal to the lamp holder) that bridge the lamp
bi-pins together into one contact on each side of the lamp. If
retrofitting from a instant start ballast fixture with shunted
sockets to a dimming or programmed start ballast, rapid start
type sockets must be used to properly start lamps and maintain
rated lamp life.

Programmed Start
Programmed Start electronic ballasts have a lamp starting method
that preheats lamp filaments while not allowing the lamp to ignite
and then applies an open circuit voltage (OCV) to start the lamp. Use
Programmed Start ballasts to ensure long lamp life when turning
lamps on and off more than five times in a day or in conjunction with
any automatic light control or sensor. This type of starting circuit
keeps lamp-end blackening to a minimum and improves lamp
life performance, especially in applications where the lamps are
frequently switched on and off.

UltraStart®
UltraStart® is a family of high-efficiency GE Programmed Start
electronic linear fluorescent ballasts that also exceed NEMA Premium®
ballast efficiency requirements but are designed to optimize GE’s
T8 Ultra lamps in frequently switched applications. Instant start
ballasts provide 7,000-13,000 starts before 50% lamp failure.
UltraStart® provides greater than 100,000 starts before 50% lamp
failure. UltraStart® ballasts have the same energy savings and
convenience of instant start ballasts but with the long lamp life of
a programmed start ballast. These ballasts are offered in ballast
factors: programmed start x-low wattage (XL) (.60), low wattage (.71),
normal light (.87), and high (>1.15).

Ballasts

GE revolutionizes lighting again with breakthrough technology. Our patented UltraMax®
instant-start and UltraStart® programmed start electronic ballasts transform the power of
light into efficiency and savings from store shelves to the installation site. The foundation of
the “Ultra” family of ballasts starts with its high efficiency ratings. High efficiency ballasts
are a minimum of 90% efficiency with some ballasts nearly 95% efficient which means the
ballast only consumes 5-10% of the total system power. These high efficiency ballasts exceed
minimum high efficiency standards as established by almost all energy advocate groups,
utility rebate programs and the NEMA Premium® ballast program. The ballasts are marked with
the Ultra brand as well as the NEMA Premium® ballast mark. These ballasts have multi-voltage
control (MVC), which automatically adjusts to handle voltage from 120V through 277V. That
cuts the ballast models you need to stock from 40 down to 13, which can dramatically reduce
inventory carrying costs. UltraMax® ballasts have ArcGuard Protection, too, with a UL Type
CC Anti-Arc Rating. Plus, they’re ultra-lamp-friendly, with a low lamp current crest factor of
1.4 for optimal lamp performance. Both UltraMax® and UltraStart® have anti-striation control
for better light quality with no lamp striations (spiraling). And the small, low-profile design of
these ballasts makes retrofits effortless at the job site. Also unique to our programmed start
UltraStart® ballasts is parallel lamp operation which ensures if one lamp fails the others remain
on, and quick starting times of less than 700 milliseconds which is necessary in avoiding delays
with automatic sensors.

Date Codes
GE electronic ballast manufacturing date codes are located on
the upper right-hand corner of the label. The code lists the month,
year and day of manufacture. A typical code is C06-073, where
the month is listed as A (January), B (February), C (March) (as in this
code) followed by the year 06 (2006) and the date of manufacture
073 (the 73rd day of 2006).

T12
Fluorescent Ballasts

With our UltraMax® and UltraStart® ballasts, we are bringing you
the future in ballast performance.

The most common fluorescent ballast is the instant start and is used
typically in long 3 to 10-hour lamp cycle applications. These ballasts
are energy efficient and can deliver up to 20% to greater than 40%
energy savings when installed with energy-efficient lamps in building
retrofits. These ballasts deliver >550 open circuit volts when starting
lamps and operate lamps at high frequencies which offers flicker-free
operation and better lamp efficiencies. The ballasts are significantly
quieter than conventional magnetic ballasts and are backed by
GE’s ultra system 5-year ballast limited warranty and extended
lamp warranties.

Safety and performance

GE UltraStart® T5 programmed start ballasts use a control circuit to apply very precise
cathode heat to ensure lamp cathodes have reached optimum temperature during lamp
starting. Precise starting reduces the amount of cathode degradation associated with
each start and increases lamp life significantly. After starting the lamps, continuous cathode
cutout technology (CCC) is applied—which eliminates wasted power to the lamps, resulting
in high efficiencies. GE UltraStart® systems also have the advantage of operating lamps in
parallel. Parallel (versus series) lamp operation ballasts typically reduce spot relamping costs by
50% or extend group relamping by 15% or more due to average lamp mortality early failures.

T12
Fluorescent Ballasts

GE has developed a line of T5 ballasts that incorporate the benefits of programmed start
ballasts with the energy savings, fast starting and parallel lamp operation of instant start
ballasts. GE’s UltraStart® T5 ballasts use low energy loss, high efficiency components along
with continuous cathode cutout (CCC) technology—resulting in 8 fewer watts than standard
4-lamp 54 watt T5 ballasts. GE’s UltraStart® T5 ballasts offer a 44% improvement over
standard T5 ballasts and create a new industry threshold for high efficiency ballasts.

Fluorescent Ballasts

The DOE ballast ruling effective April 1, 2005, prevents the sale of 4 foot and 8 foot lamp
electromagnetic ballasts that operate T12 lamps and do not meet federal ballast efficiency
requirements. GE ProLine® T12 electronic ballasts meet the DOE minimum ballast efficiency
requirements and also allow facility managers to reduce ballast maintenance inventories by
consolidating the number of ballasts needed. GE ProLine® T12 ballasts operate both energysaving and standard wattage lamps and are also multi-voltage (120-277V). With 2 ballasts, the
multi-voltage ProLine® T12 can consolidate over 40 different magnetic ballasts.

GE high-wattage eHID ballasts will operate 250, 300, 320,350 or 400 watt pulse start or
ceramic metal halide lamps with one ballast. The eHID Ballast with a PulseArc lamp will produce
70% more lumens per watt than the obsolete probe start magnetic core and coil system.
Variable dimming to 50% power reduction is an option with GE eHID high wattage ballast.

Ballasts

GE’s UltraMax® eHID ballasts operate only pulse start and ceramic metal halide lamps.
GE UltraMax® eHID ballasts operate lamps at a low frequency square wave to maximize
lamp performance. Extensive analysis of all brands of lamps suggests that the most
compatible driving waveform for an electronic HID electronic ballast is a low-frequency
squared wave (L.F.S.W.) with higher order harmonic content. L.F.S.W. has been established as
a dependable method of ballasting low-wattage HID lamps with significant industry support.
Analysis of lamp data has shown that there are limited operating bands between 1 kHz to
200 kHz in which electronic ballast could operate a lamp wattage family without causing
unacceptable arc instability due to acoustic resonance. GE’s UltraMax® eHID constantly
measures and adjusts the wattage, optimizing the ceramic metal halide lamp performance.

like electronic fluorescent systems that preceded it, significantly improve the performance
of HID lighting. Electronic UltraMax® eHID Ballasts use solid-state components to start and
operate HID lamps. Electronic eHID ballasts use IC chips to control and give feedback for
optimal performance of the lighting system. GE eHID ballasts improve the efficiency, maintain
higher lumens, enhance lamp life and color control, and operate more quietly than the
magnetic core and coil ballast that they replace.

GE HID Ballast Types

GE HID ballast 150 watts or less have High Reactance Autotransformer circuits and high
power factor (HX-HPF). GE HID ballast greater that 150 watts have Constant Wattage
Autotransformer circuits and are high power factor (HPF).

Potted Core and Coil Ballast
GE potted core and coil ballasts are designed for applications
requiring quieter or cooler operation than provided by standard coil
and coil ballast. The potting material is sand-filled polyester which
provides excellent sound-deadening and heat-transfer qualities.

HID Electromagnetic
Ballasts

See page 195 for warranty information.

Standard ignitors are supplied with metal halide ballast 150 watts
or less, pulse start metal halide and high-pressure sodium ballast.
There are several different ignitors that meet the needs of many GE
lamp and ballast combinations. The appropriate ignitor is listed in the
catalog under the ballast specifications.

GE Ballast HID Electromagnetic nomenclature

HID Electronic
Ballasts

CWA ballast is the most common circuit for core and coil ballast. CWA circuits provide for
stable light regulation. The CWA circuit consists of a high reactance autotransformer with a
capacitor in series with the lamp resulting with high power factor ballast. In most CWA ballast
circuits a 10% drop in line voltage will only reduce the light output and wattage by 5%. The
CWA circuit ballast requires an igniter for QMH pulse start, ceramic metal halide and HPS
lamps. Igniters are also required for QMH lamps 150 watts or less.

Ignitors
Ignitors are also sold in individual cartons for replacement needs.
Ignitors supply a high voltage pulse to ionize the gas creating the
glow discharge. Once the lamp is started the ignitor stops providing
the pulse. Ignitors are designed to last thousand of hours; however, if
the lamp fails or the socket is empty, the ignitor will continue to pulse.
The lamps should be replaced or the fixture turned off to prevent
premature failure of the ignitor.

Compact Fluorescent
Ballasts

CORE AND COIL
The most common HID ballasts are the core and coil and is used in 90% of the fixture
applications. Core and coil ballasts consist of one, two or three copper (or aluminum) coils on a
core of electrical-grade steel laminations. HID ballasts are classified by the kind of circuit they
use: Reactor (R), High Reactance autotransformer (HX), Constant Wattage Autotransformer
(CWA), Regulated lag (Reg Lag) or Electronic. HID ballast are also classified as high power factor
(HPF) or normal power factor (NPF).

142

Power factor capacitors are used to reduce the negative effects that
inductive devices (HID ballast) have on power factor ratings. GE sells
a complete line of capacitors that must be properly matched to the
lamp and HID ballast. GE capacitors have bleed-in resistors and use
biodegradable, nontoxic (no PCBs) dielectric fluid.

UL Bench Top Temperature Code
To help with UL inspection, the UL Bench top code is listed on the GE
label on the core and coil ballast as 1029X. X is the temperature code
and represented by the following temperature classifications: A, B, C,
D, E and F.

Metal Halide (Probe Start)

High Pressure Sodium

Capacitors
Most GE capacitors and ignitors are sold in ballast kits that come
pre-wired and reduce labor cost. Capacitors and ignitors are also
sold separately.

Date Codes
GE HID core and coil ballast manufacturing date codes are located
on the top end of the core. They are printed in white and indicate year,
month manufactured, and order the ballast was manufactured in the
month. A code of 070100001 would indicate manufacture date of
07 (year 2007), 01 (month of January), and 00001 would be the
manufacturing sequence.

T12
Fluorescent Ballasts

HID lamps take several minutes to warm-up and reach full light output. If power is interrupted
between the lamp and the ballast, the arc will extinguish and lamp will go out. The lamp must
cool down and reduce the vapor pressure before it will re-start. Typical warm-up and restrike
times are as follows:

Ignitors and capacitors, where required, are included with the quad
and 5-tap ballast kits.

Ballast Date and Temperature Codes

T5
Fluorescent Ballasts

GE offers High Intensity Discharge (HID) ballasts for mercury, probe start metal halide, pulse
start metal halide and high pressure sodium lamps. Standard metal halide lamps or probe
start metal halide over 150 watts, like fluorescent, are electric discharge lamps and require an
open circuit voltage of nearly two times the operating voltage to the initiate the arc between
the two electrodes in the arc tube. High pressure sodium, pulse start metal halide and probe
start metal halide lamps 150 watts or less require an ignitor to initiate the high voltage to
start the lamps. The ballasts provide the starting voltage with the igniter, where required, and
provides stability for the lamp. HID lamps have negative impedance characteristics and would
draw current until destruction unless a ballast was in place to regulate the current.

Also available for metal halide and high pressure sodium applications
is the 5-tap ballast-lamp replacement kit listed as -55. This easy-tocarry, convenient, all-in-one kit, ensures ballast-lamp compatibility by
including the lamp as well.

F-Can Ballast
GE F-Can ballast is recommended for indoor applications and
where ballast noise must be minimized. F-Can ballast are encased
in fluorescent ballast-type cans and potted with asphalt insulating
materials to minimize noise.

Distributor Ballast Kits
GE stocks a comprehensive inventory of quad and 5-tap HID voltage
ballast kits. The kits contain the appropriate core and coil, capacitor,
ignitor (where required), mounting bracket, mounting hardware and
instructions to allow the stocking distributor to meet the needs of
their customer while minimizing their investment in component parts.
The quad ballast kit has color-coded leads to identify voltages and
operates at 120/208/240/277. The 5-tap HID ballast kits also include
480-volt applications and are listed as ML5, though GE also offers
single-voltage kits for 480-volt with 120-volt taps for stand-by lighting.

HID Electronic
Ballasts

High-Pressure Sodium (HPS) Lamp
HPS lamps are high intensity discharge light
sources that produce light by an electrical
discharge though sodium vapor operating at
relatively high pressures and temperatures. GE
trade name is Lucalox®.
Hot Restart Time
Time it takes for an HID lamp to reach 90% of light
output after going from on to off to on.
Ignitor
An electronic device providing a high voltage pulse
to initiate an electrical discharge. Typically, the
ignitor is paired with or is a part of the ballast
(see STARTER).
Infrared Radiation
Electromagnetic energy radiated in the
wavelength range of about 770 to 1,000,000
nanometers. Energy in this range cannot be seen
by the human eye, but can be sensed as heat.
Input Voltage
Power supply voltage required for proper operation
of fluorescent or HID ballast.

Input Watts
The total power input to the ballast that includes
lamp watts and ballast losses. The total power
input to the fixture is the input watts to the ballast
or ballasts and is the value to be used when
calculating cost of energy. More than 90% of the
input watts is wattage or power delivered to the
lamp load with typical ballast.
Instant Start
Lamp starting method in which lamps are started
by high voltage input with no preheating of lamp
filaments. Some rapid start lamps are designed so
that they may be instant started.
Instant Start Lamp
A fluorescent lamp, usually with a single pin at each
end, approved to operate on instant start ballasts.
The lamp is ignited by a high voltage without any
filament heating.
Integral
A popular term for a compact fluorescent lamp
that includes a built-in ballast (see CFL).
Kilowatt (kW)
The measure of electrical power equal to 1000
watts.
Kilowatt Hour (kWh)
The standard measure of electrical energy and
the typical billing unit used by electrical utilities for
electricity use. A 100-watt lamp operated for 10
hours consumes 1000 watt-hours (100 x 10) or one
kilowatt-hour. If the utility charges $.10/kWh, then
the electricity cost for the 10 hours of operation
would be 10 cents (1 kWh x $.10).
Laminations
Layers of steel, making up the “core” that is
surrounded by the coils in a core and coil ballast.
Lamp
The term used to refer to the complete light-source
package, including the inner parts as well as
the outer bulb or tube. “Lamp,” of course, is also
commonly used to refer to a type of small light
fixture such as a table lamp.
Lamp Types
Filament lamps: Incandescent, Halogen, Halogen-IR.
Discharge Lamps: Fluorescent, HID (High Intensity
Discharge).
HID Lamps: Mercury, HPS (High Pressure Sodium),
MH (Metal Halide) and Ceramic Metal Halide.
Lamp Watts
Input power used to operate lamps.
Life
(See RATED LAMP LIFE.)
Light
Radiant energy that can be sensed or seen by the
human eye. Visible light is measured in lumens.
Light-Emitting Diode (LED)
A solid that directly converts electrical impulses
into light.
Light Loss Factor
The product of all factors that contribute to
lowering the illumination level including reflector
degradation, dirt, lamp depreciation over time,
voltage fluctuations, etc.
Lumens
A measure of the luminous flux or quantity of light
emitted by a source. For example, a dinner candle
provides about 12 lumens. A 60-watt Soft White
incandescent lamp provides about 840 lumens.

Compact Fluorescent
Ballasts

Fluorescent Lamp
A high efficiency lamp utilizing an electric
discharge through inert gas and low-pressure
mercury vapor to produce ultraviolet (UV) energy.
The UV excites phosphor materials applied as a
thin layer on the inside of a glass tube that makes
up the structure of the lamp. The phosphors
transform the UV to visible light.
Footcandles
A unit of illuminance or light falling onto a surface.
It stands for the light level on a surface one foot
from a standard candle. One footcandle is equal to
one lumen per square foot.
Four-Pin Compact Fluorescent Lamps
A “plug-in” compact fluorescent lamp with four
pins in the base to make electrical contact.
Frequency
Rate of alternation in an AC current. Expressed in
cycles per second or Hertz (Hz).
Harmonic
An integral multiple of the fundamental frequency
(60 Hz) that becomes a component of the current.
Harmonic Distortion
Distortion of an AC waveform caused by multiples
of the fundamental frequency (harmonics). Odd
triplet harmonics (thirds, ninths, etc.) may result in
large currents on the neutral line in a four-wire Wye
three-phase system.
Hertz (Hz)
Unit used to measure frequency of alteration of
current or voltage.
High Efficiency (Energy-Saving) Electromagnetic
Ballast
Ballast with core and coils, designed to minimize
ballast losses compared to the “standard” ballast.
High Intensity Discharge (HID) Lamp
A general term for mercury, metal halide (GE
ConstantColor® CMH®, Multi-Vapor®, MXR or
Arcstream®) and high-pressure sodium (GE
Lucalox®) lamps. HID lamps contain compact arc
tubes which enclose mercury and various gases
with other chemicals and operate at relatively high
pressures and temperatures.
High Power Factor
A ballast whose power factor is corrected to 90%
or greater.

Sign
Ballasts

a 100-watt incandescent lamp converts 7% of
the electrical energy into light; discharge lamps
convert 25% to 40% into light.
Efficiency of Ballast
The ratio of output power divided by input power.
A premium ballast would have an electrical
efficiency greater than 90%. The efficiency of a
luminaire or fixture is the percentage of the lamp
lumens that actually come out of the fixture.
Electrical Discharge
A condition under which a gas becomes electrically
conducive and becomes capable of transmitting
current, usually accompanied by the emission of
visible and other radiation. An electric spark in air
is an example of an electrical discharge, as are a
welder’s arc and a lightning bolt.
Electrical Testing Laboratory (ETL)
Independent testing laboratory that performs tests
and certifies performance data.
Electrode
Any metal terminal emitting or collecting
charged particles, typically inside the chamber
of a gas discharge lamp. In a fluorescent lamp,
the electrodes are typically metal filaments
coated with special powders called emission mix.
Negatively charged free electrons emitted by one
electrode are attracted to the positive electrode
(anode), creating an electric current arc.
Electromagnetic Ballast (Magnetic Ballast)
A ballast used with discharge lamps that consists
primarily of transformer-like copper or aluminum
windings on a steel or iron core. Also called “core
and coil” (see ELECTRONIC BALLASTS).
EMI (Electromagnetic Inference)
High-frequency electronic ballasts and other
electronic devices can produce a small amount
of radio waves which can interfere with radio
and TV. Federally mandated requirements must
be met for EMI levels before an electronic device
is considered FCC compliant (FCC is the Federal
Communications Commission).
Electronic Ballast
A short name for a fluorescent high-frequency
electronic ballast. Electronic ballasts use solidstate electronic components and typically operate
fluorescent lamps at frequencies greater than 25
kHz. The benefits are: increased lamp efficacy,
reduced ballast losses and lighter, smaller ballasts
compared to electromagnetic ballasts. Electronic
ballasts may also be used with HID (high intensity
discharge) lamps (see ELECTROMAGNETIC BALLAST).
Energy Policy Act (EPACT)
U.S. Energy legislation setting minimum efficacy
(lumens/watt) requirements. Federal Canadian
legislation sets similar requirements.
Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
The U. S. federal agency that regulates emissions in
the radio frequency portion of the electromagnetic
spectrum. Part 18 of the FCC rules specifies
electromagnetic interference (EMI) from lighting
devices at frequencies greater than 450 kilohertz
(kHz). A consumer-rated Class B ballast is designed
for use in the home near TV and radio receivers. It
produces less electrical noise that could interfere
with consumer products. A Class A-rated ballast
is designed for use in commercial and industrial
applications that are not in the vicinity of TV and
radio receivers.
Flicker
The periodic variation in light level caused by AC
operation that can lead to strobe effects.

T12
Fluorescent Ballasts

Color Rendering Index (CRI)
An international system used to rate a lamp’s
ability to render object colors. The higher the
CRI (based upon a 0-100 scale) the richer colors
generally appear.
Color Temperature (Correlated Color
Temperature – CCT)
A number indicating the degree of “yellowness”
or “blueness” of a white light source. Measured
in kelvins, CCT represents the temperature an
incandescent object (like a filament) must reach
to mimic the color of the lamp. Yellowish-white
(“warm”) sources, like incandescent lamps, have
lower color temperatures in the 2700K-3000K
range; white and bluish-white (“cool”) sources, such
as cool white (4100K) and natural daylight (6000K),
have higher color temperatures. The higher the
color temperature, the bluer the light will be.
Compact Fluorescent Lamp (CFL)
The general term applied to fluorescent lamps that
are single-ended and that have smaller diameter
tubes that are bent to form a compact shape.
Some CFLs have integral ballasts and medium or
candelabra screw bases for easy replacement of
incandescent lamps.
Cool White
A term loosely used to denote a color temperature
of around 4100K. The Cool White (CW) designation
is used specifically for T12 and other fluorescent
lamps using halophosphors and having a CRI of 62.
Core
Component of electromagnetic ballast that is
surrounded by the coil. Core is comprised of steel
laminations or solid ferrite material.
Core & Coil Ballast
A ballast that uses a “Core & Coil” assembly to
operate fluorescent or HID lamps. Refers to copper
or aluminum windings on a steel core.
Cost of Light
Usually refers to the cost of operating and
maintaining a lighting system on an ongoing basis.
The 88-8-4 rule states that (typically) 88% is the
cost of electricity, 8% is labor and only 4% is the
cost of lamps.
Crest Factor (Lamp Current Crest Factor)
Ratio of peak to RMS for any AC waveform. Crest
factor can refer to voltage crest factor or current
crest factor.
Daylight Harvesting
Lighting design for building interiors that makes
use of daylight as a way of reducing energy
consumption.
Dimmer, Dimming Control
A device used to lower the light output of a
source, usually by reducing the wattage it is being
operated at. Dimming controls are increasing in
popularity as energy-conserving devices.
Ecolux®
A term for GE lamps that have reduced mercury
content and pass the TCLP test.
Efficacy
A measurement of how effective the light source is
in converting electrical energy to lumens of visible
light. Expressed in lumens-per-watt (LPW), this
measure gives more weight to the yellow region
of the spectrum and less weight to the blue and
red regions where the eye is not as sensitive. The
efficiency of a light source is simply the fraction
of electrical energy converted to light, i.e. watts of
visible light produced for each watt of electrical
power with no concern about the wavelength
where the energy is being radiated. For example,

a wire-trap on the bottom or base of the ballast.
This type of configuration is usually used when the
ballast is mounted onto a junction box plate.
Bottom Exit Studs (BES)
(CFL plug-in ballasts) A configuration with screw
studs mounted on the base plate or bottom of the
ballast. The screws are 3/8-inch long with a #8-32
thread size (#8-32 nut). They are mounted on a
2-inch center. The studs are usually used to mount
the ballast directly onto a junction box plate.
Bulb Size
Bulb shape followed by its size (the maximum
diameter of the bulb expressed in eighths of an
inch). For Compact Fluorescent products, “S”, “D”,
“T”, and “Q” are used to represent Single, Double,
Triple and Quad Biax® sizes. The code also includes
a reference such as T4 to represent the size of the
tube. Rectangular headlamps are designated as
“Rect” and the number of millimeters horizontally.

lamp. Negatively charged free electrons emitted
by the cathode are attracted to them, creating an
electric current between the electrodes.
Cathode Resistance
Resistance of the cathode in a Fluorescent lamp. It
is measured “cold” before the lamp is turned on (Rc)
or “hot” after the lamp is turned on (Rh). The ratio
of the hot resistance to the cold resistance is also
measured (Rh/Rc).
Ceramic Metal Halide

material for the arc tube instead of glass quartz,
resulting in better color rendering (>80 CRI) and
improved lumen maintenance. GE ConstantColor®
CMH® lamps deliver reliability and excellent color.
ChromaFit

Watts (power) = Volts x Amps (current).
ANSI (American National Standards Institute)
A consensus-based organization which
coordinates voluntary standards for the physical,
electrical and performance characteristics of
lamps, ballasts, luminaires and other lighting and
electrical equipment.
ANSI Ballast Type
Ballast type used to operate lamp in accordance
with ANSI standard.
ANSI Codes
These are 3-letter codes assigned by the American
National Standards Institute. They provide a
system of assuring mechanical and electrical
interchangeability among similarly coded lamps
from various manufacturers. General Electric uses
the assigned ANSI Codes as Lamp Ordering Codes
for most Projection Lamps.
Auto Reset Shutdown Circuit
Circuit senses lamp end life and will automatically
shut off power to the lamp(s). When a new lamp is
inserted in the socket, the ballast resets, and turns
on the lamp automatically. Some shutdown circuits
require the power to be cycled before a new lamp
will re-light.
Ballast
An auxiliary piece of equipment required to start
and to properly control the flow of current to gas
discharge light sources such as fluorescent and
high intensity discharge (HID) lamps. Typically,
magnetic ballasts (also called electromagnetic
ballasts) contain copper windings on an iron core
while electronic ballasts are smaller and more
efficient and contain electronic components.
Ballast Efficacy Factor (BEF)
Defined as ballast factor x100 divided by input
watts. The value is used to evaluate various lighting
systems based on light output and power input.
The BEF can only be used to compare systems
operating the same type and quantity of lamps.
Ballast Factor (BF)
This is the percentage of a lamp’s rated lumen
output that can be expected when operated on a
specific, commercially available ballast. Note that
the “rated output” is sometimes measured on a
reference ballast unlike ones that actually operate
the lamp in the field. For example, a ballast with
a ballast factor of 0.93 will result in the lamp’s
emitting 93% of its rated lumen output. A ballast
with a lower BF results in less light output and also
generally consumes less power.
Ballast Hum
Sound generated by the vibration of laminations in
the iron core or inductor in the ballast.
Ballast Losses
Power or energy dissipated in the ballast as heat
and not converted to lamp energy.
Base Temperature (Maximum)
The maximum operating temperature permitted
for the base in Celsius. Fixture manufacturers need
to ensure that these conditions are satisfied.
Bi-Pin
Any base with two metal pins for electrical contact.
This is the typical base for a fluorescent tube of 1 to
4 feet in length. It consists of 2 prong contacts that
connect into the fixture. Medium bi-pins are used
with type T-8 and T-12 tubular fluorescent lamps,
and miniature bi-pins are used for tubular T-5
fluorescent lamps.

Scotopic/Photopic (S/P) Ratio
This measurement accounts for the fact that of
the two light sensors in the retina, rods are more
sensitive to blue light (scotopic vision) and cones to
yellow light (photopic vision). The scotopic/photopic
(S/P) ratio is an attempt to capture the relative
strengths of these two responses. S/P is calculated
as the ratio of scotopic lumens to photopic

Five-digit code to identify the product.
Programmed Rapid Start
Lamp starting method which preheats the lamp
filaments while not allowing the lamp to ignite and
then applies the open circuit voltage (OCV) to start
the lamp. This type of starting circuit keeps lampend blackening to a minimum and improves lamplife performance, especially in applications where
the lamps are frequently switched on and off.

measured across the discharge when the lamp
is operating. It is governed by the contents of the
chamber and is somewhat independent of the
ballast and other external factors.

components of some magnetic and electronic
ballasts. Potting compound fulfills functions of
protecting components, dampening sound, and
dissipating heat.
Power Factor
Measurement of the relationship between the AC
source voltage and current. High-power factor
