What Manufacturer are these?
 

I have some fluorescent light fixtures that need replacing. The local
electrical supply has nothing like these. Can you identify them? They
only have one label, "Encore."

Though they may not still make that style.

Take the cover off the end. What you have probably looks like this:
http://electrical.hardwarestore.com/...s--682379.aspx

A common end for commercial fixtures

If not exactly like that with the cover off, take the burnt one to your
local Lowes or Home Depot.

I may be all wet on this one, but they look like fairly
ordinary eight footers. Haul one down to the HD (like the
other fellow said) and I bet they fix you up good. Get you
going.

Then, expect to pay a hefty disposal fee for the old ones to
haul off.

*No need to replace the fixture when all you need are sockets. You need
very high output lamp sockets (VHO).

You may be able to find them at a sign company as that type of lamp is
usually used in signs.

NOT common. These mounts are flush mounted to the flange. Look at the
photos.

If not exactly like that with the cover off, take the burnt one to your
local Lowes or Home Depot.

They require disassembly, a 2 man job, just to get at the mounts. The ring
has studs behind them which are bolted to the face.

You are all wet. These are NOT common 8 footers. They install in pairs at
a fixed right angle, with 2 together to make a square. The local
electrical supply houses have never seen anything like them.

The 3rd one down looks like it, but they seem to just pop in place, but the
existing ones seem to be bolted in place. As soon as I find the tall
ladder again I can check this out.

Why ask for help if YOU know all about it? And if you need a tall ladder
common sense would tell the ordinary smart person to take it out for
comparison while you are up there the FIRST time.

BTW: I've been doing commercial maintenance for 15 years. And this IS a
common end despite the layout of the bulbs

When I looked up there the first time it looked like the sockets were
bolted in place and to get to them required another person to help
disassemble the fixtures.

If it is a common end, why doesn't the large electrical supply house even
know what they are? Nobody in this large city knows what they are and
nobody carries anything like them locally.
