Fluorescent Dimming Ballasts Tu-Wire 5%
Retrofit and small-space applications
can benefit from the ease of installation offered by Lutron Tu-Wire dimming
ballasts. Tu-Wire ballasts offer high performance 100% to 5% dimming for linear
and compact fluorescent lamps.
Tu-Wire ballasts require only two wires (hot and neutral) for power and control.
Lutron offers a wide range of compatible 2-wire controls, making Tu-Wire a
perfect choice for many applications. Additionally, one-lamp T4 models have been
designed to meet FCC Part 18 consumer requirements.
