Hi all,

I have a run of 3x20W fluorescent under-cabinet slimline strip lights;
only the middle one of which is still working. I was about to replace the
outer two when I read this warning at the bottom of the installation
sheet:

"These T5 luminaires must not be wired on the same circuit as standard
fluorescent fittings which use conventional low-loss magnetic ballasts."

How can I tell if the one remaining working one is of this type and is it
really important? It's been there since before I bought the place so at
least 7 years old.

ta!



Want a serious answer?


Just replace all 3 tubes with identical tubes.
