GE Lighting GEC340MAX-A Electronic CFL Ballast

The GE Lighting GEC340MAX-A is an electronic ballast designed for compact fluorescent lamps. It operates on a universal 120 to 277V AC input and supports up to three PL-T type bulbs. This unit suits commercial or residential lighting retrofits needing instant start operation.

Sustained load behaviour

The ballast delivers a maximum lamp wattage of 99W across supported 32W or 40W bulbs. Instant start circuitry energises lamps without pre-heating, reducing ignition delay. With no dimming capability, light output remains constant during continuous operation. Minimum starting temperature is rated at 0 degrees Fahrenheit.

Installation notes

Wiring connects to standard line voltage within the 120 to 277V range. The unit mounts in compatible fixtures designated for PL-T lamps. Installers must verify bulb wattage matches the 32W or 40W specification to avoid damage. No dimming controls are supported, so dimmer switches must not be used.

Questions about this item

How much heat does the 99 W ballast add when it runs all day?

The ballast draws up to 99 W from the 120 to 277 V AC supply, so it releases roughly that much heat into the fixture during continuous operation.

Which lamps must I already have for the GEC340MAX-A to work?

You need three PL-T compact fluorescent lamps rated 32 W or 40 W each; the instant-start ballast supports exactly three bulbs.

Will the ballast start reliably with the older PL-T lamps I already own?

Yes — the instant-start design ignites compatible 32 W or 40 W PL-T lamps down to 0 °F, so existing lamps of those types will start normally.
