2 pin vs 4 pin bulb
What are the advantages of a 4pin vs a 2pin bulb..... the manufacturer of my
task light used a 2 pin bulb but the socket is made to accept a 4 pin...... Also..... the socket wire connections are of the type Leviton as seen in this photo..... http://bplusl.com/html/nu6-1128eol.htm I am trying to replace the ballast.... does anyone know how to unhook the wires from this lamp holder? |

Don, that photo is of the ballast, not the socket. Some sockets have the pins crimped to the stranded wire then poked into the housing. That type is often non-removeable or requires a special tool to release the pin. Neil S. |
