What is the difference between Single Ended vs. Double Ended Power?
Single Ended
Single Ended Power tubes are LED lamps that have neutral and live pins on the same side.
If the lamp is being installed as a retrofit into a fluorescent fixture, one of the shunted lampholders (or tombstones)on the fluorescent fixture will need to be replaced with a non-shunted lampholder.
Single Ended lamps installed by Direct Wire application do not need a ballast. If installing as a retrofit in a fluorescent fixture, the ballast will need to be removed and the lampholder replaced.
Double Ended
Doubled Ended Power tubes are LED lamps that have separate live and neutral ends.
These type of tubes can use both Non-Shunted Sockets and Shunted Sockets.
