3 Major Types of LED Bulbs Require Different Wiring, Can Be Confusing - Convert Fluorescent to LED

[@jerauldnumata1297]

Good explanation. At 3:54 I think you meant non-shunted, not shunted when you connect voltage to only one side of the tube.

Great video thanks for sharing!

Excellent review, thank you !!!!

Older light fixtures have magnetic ballasts where these supposed “plug n play” led’s dont work. Not sure if the bulbs or the ballast was smoking before the type a led’s quit.

[@pitchforkpeasant6219]

How do you tell the difference between having to direct wire positive on one end and neutral on the other end or have both hot and neutral on the same end?

@@pitchforkpeasant6219 First, why purchase a led and yet still use the ballast? It’s easy but not saving much energy. When you purchase the led bulbs the description indicates which type of wiring is involved. The purpose of the video was to leach that so one knows how each gets wired. Shunted is the easiest.

At 3.33 you point to white common, but you have red of the pigtail connected to the tube instead of the white.. It would have been nice if you hid the red on both ends of pigtail to make it not confusing... and yes like @jerauldmumata 1297 I also feel @3.54 you probably meant Non Shunted.

[@johnsmith-sw7ii]

You called the one you wired from only one "shunted"...Incorrect...this is "unshunted" If your fixture has one wire to each tombstone its "shunted" if it has two wires to each tombstone its "unshunted and you must wire correctly. The way your original tombstones are wired determines how you rewire the bypass UNLESS you want to change the tombstones to suit your preferred method
