Although sometimes changing a fluorescent tube by a LED tube may seem child's play at other times, it can be a real headache if you do not take into account certain details.
Thus, to make installation easier, we have prepared this simple step-by-step guide to change the fluorescent tubes for LED tubes.
Depending on your installation with ferromagnetic or electric ballast, it will be necessary to proceed differently.

Let's go!


How to replace a FLUORESCENT Tube with a LED Tube Light



STEPS STEP BY STEP:


 1.  Disconnect the electricity from the electrical panel and check that the power is turned off. Electrical risk.
 2.  Remove the old neon tube, then the choke.
 3.  Place the new LED starter bridge (supplied with each tube)
 4. Remove the capacitor (to avoid surges)
 5. Install the new LED tube.

STEPS STEP BY STEP:


1.  Remove the old neon tube. In this case, there is no choke because it is incorporated inside the electronic ballast.
 2.  Disconnect the cables that enter the electronic ballast (no need to remove them, simply disconnect them electrically).
 3.  Then, choose one of the two tube holders (or sockets) and connect its two cables directly to the mains.
 4.  We recommend marking the socket where you made the connection to facilitate the installation of the LED tube.


Some offer a wide range of fluorescent tubes, ideal for replacing your old neon lights. LED tube models are also specially adapted for commercial use. These fluorescent tubes have different color spectrums that will allow you to highlight your different things.

Guide to lumens

Guide to lumens Lumens (lm) are a measure of the amount of total visible light from a lamp or light source. The higher the number of lumens, the more brilliant the bulb/lamp. We all bought incandescent bulbs of 50 or 60W thinking it determined the light output. It is incorrect, however, to relate power consumption (watts) to light output. More Light, Less Energy (watts) With Led: With LED lamps: less energy consumed for more light output. Thus, a 6.5W LED bulb will produce a light similar to a 50W halogen bulb. That's 87% less energy consumed for the same amount of light delivered! With LEDs, energy is transformed into light and not into heat. Thanks to constant innovations, we will consume less and less energy. We will produce more and more lumens for less Watts. As a result, your electricity costs decrease! The Watt is no longer the reference measure for knowing the brilliance of a bulb. Lumens - Traditional LED Lighting To g...

LED waterproof luminaires: for warehouses and car parks

LED waterproof luminaires: for Warehouses and Car Parking The importance of maintaining a well-lit parking lot is not only necessary to give light to the place. But also to ensure the safety of pedestrians and drivers who move in the area. But, it is necessary to maintain modern lighting equipment, practical and hygienic, so compact and waterproof that the humidity does not affect them. The old luminaries used to illuminate these places did it of ineffective form. After a short time, the light began to flash, added to the lack of hygiene and dirt. In addition, they had a low degree of tightness, which is why insects, dirt, and moisture got inside. The screen dimmed over time preventing proper light output. The LED revolution: Now all that has changed thanks to the wonderful LED technology and the waterproof LED luminaires, for which the quality of the light, the decoration, the cleaning and the saving of energy are united in a single luminaire. Your car...
