Connecting a LED tube to an old light fitting. This light fitting is from the 90s and still good to use as a holder for a LED tube. Because of the low heat output of the LED tube this fitting should last just about for ever!
Never had a chance to replace fluorescent with the LED tubes, but would most likely burn couple of those before realizing that they must be placed in the sockets in a certain order. Thanks for the video, good job.
Hi. Most of the old and new metal fittings have a little tab where a connector slides over and screws onto. It you have a plastic fitting,no earth is needed. If you have a meral one with no earth tab. Drill a hole in the metal and put a nut and bolt through to fasten the earth wite. Groete
4:35 I received a new type that has the fuse, will the tube burn out if I don't use the fuse that they sent with? Is it to protect the LED or actually just to help with conversion without having to remove the fuse socket?
In my opinion/experience the fuse will not protect the LED tube from "burning out". If the LED tube reached the end of it's live span it will blow/burn out. I think the fuse will blown and keep the rest of the circuit from tripping inside the distribution board. (in some cases)
Thank you for the great video! What if at the time of replacement of LED tube , i swap the ends of the led tube i.e the end with writtings with the end with no writtings, what will happen, kindly?
@@Le_vis254 one side of the LED tube requires Live on one pin and Neutral on the other. The other side has no power and is just there to hang in the existing holders. No power to that one side.
