  • GE UltraStart model 75953 ballast

Product Identity

The GE UltraStart 75953 is a T8 fluorescent ballast designed for commercial and institutional lighting systems. It suits facility managers and electricians who need reliable lamp operation across a wide range of supply voltages.

Multi-Voltage Operation

Multi Voltage technology handles voltage from 120 to 277V, allowing a single ballast model to work on virtually any standard North American circuit. This specification determines whether the unit matches the building's electrical supply.

Lamp Life and Limits

Programmed rapid start extends lamp life in frequently switched applications to 100000 on/off cycles with starting time visually the same as instant start. It is not for fixtures that require true instant-start wiring or dimming control.
