Philips Advance T8 Fluorescent Ballast - 120-277V AC | Instant Start

The Philips Advance T8 Fluorescent Ballast, model ICN1P32N35M, is the component described here. For maintenance of a fluorescent troffer or strip, this model must match the fixture’s supported lamp configuration. The 1 X F32T8 operating configuration distinguishes this ballast from versions intended for a different lamp count. This is the instant start version, so the fixture wiring and lampholder arrangement must suit that starting method. The listed ballast factor is 0.91, which is relevant when comparing the output of the same lamps on different compatible ballasts.

This version is specified for 120-277V AC; that rating is part of the selection when replacing an existing fitting. Compare length 9.50 in., width 1.30 in., height 1.00 in. with the available space for the ballast compartment, especially when retaining an existing enclosure or shade. Follow the wiring diagram for this model when making the replacement connections.

Buying tip: Match the lamp designation, number of lamps and supply voltage to the existing ballast.
