that lamp didnt work, i assume it had to have the guts all in it, mine just had cables direct to the lamp holder.

ok stuck again, the Light fitting has no ballast or starter, the cables you see in the picture go direct to the tube end caps that hold the lamp in, cant seem to find the right lamp if can be done that is

length is 1400 if you havent realised it was a typo,lol

The Original tube looks to have been a T16/54W fluo tube, 1149mm in length. Phillips and thorn make an LED replacement for those I believe.


this one should work with no ballast as it’s a 230-240v rated lamp

Is T16 and T5 the same lamp holder?

Did the lamp physically fit?
 
i assume the ballast starter and emergency gear was in a separate box up on a shelf , certain wires came from it to the light fitting,i only saw these in the corner of the room and was asked if i wanted them, thought i could make use as they seem to have a high build quality feeling them.
