To assess your fixture's compatibility with the NUVO S11919 CCT Selectable LED Linear T8 Type B Lamps retrofit kit, consider these steps:
- Fixture Inspection: Begin by comparing your fixture's construction and dimensions with the specifications provided in the NUVO S11919 manual. Ensure your fixture's input rating matches or exceeds the kit's requirements.
- Wiring Assessment: Before starting, inspect your fixture's existing wiring. If any wires are damaged, do not proceed with the installation.
- Lamp Holder Identification: Determine the type of lamp holders present in your fixture. For the single-ended wiring required by the SATCO tubes in the kit, you'll need non-shunted G13 lamp holders.
- Single-Ended Wiring Setup: If your fixture has non-shunted lamp holders, follow the manual's instructions for single-ended wiring. Make sure power is only connected to the endcap labeled "Side A" during single-ended installations.
- Double-Ended Wiring Setup: For fixtures with shunted or non-shunted G13 lamp holders, use the double-ended wiring instructions from the manual. When multiple lamps are involved, connect the terminals of the first lamp to the corresponding terminals on the second lamp's lampholder.
- Electrical Connections: Use appropriate connectors, such as wire nuts, to complete all electrical connections, adhering to local and national electrical codes. After the connections are made, replace the wiring compartment cover.
- Installation and Testing: Install the SATCO tubes, ensuring "Side A" is placed in the lampholders connected to line and neutral. Finally, turn on the fixture to confirm successful illumination. Following these steps and consulting the NUVO S11919 manual will help you determine if your fixture is compatible with the NUVO CCT Selectable LED Linear T8 Type B Lamps retrofit kit.
