This means there is a relation between the Tc point on the ballast and its lifetime. The HF- E ballast has a specified lifetime of 30.000 hrs, with a maximum of 10% failures guaranteed, at a measured Tcase of 75ºC. For more information regarding this subject consult the Philips Application guide to fluorescent lamp control gear. Wiring Recommendations The lead length is dependent on the capacitance of the cable. Earthing is not required for the device to operate. Connection to earth reduces radio interference. With standard solid wire 0.5/0.75 mm2 the capacitance of the lead is approx. 200 pf/m. This value is influenced by the way the wiring is made. In borderline cases the capacitance must be measured inside the luminary. Keep lamp wires short. connection with twin ballast should be made with symmetrical wiring. Max cable length hot side 0.75 m Hot leads and cold leads should be separated as much as possible. To avoid the damage of the control gear, the wiring must be protected against short circuits to earth. Wiring type and cross section The wiring can be in flexible cable with ferrules or solid cable with a cross section of 0.5 1.5 mm². For perfect function of the simple to use push-wire terminals the strip length should be 8 9 mm. WAGO 250
