QE Global ECC (Energy Carbon Clean) LED T8 tubes, have been designed to a high quality to provide a bright light output as a real alternative to fluorescent tubes. They use 60–65% less energy and have a life of over three and a half times longer than the equivalent fluorescent tube.
We have designed them to fit into existing G13 fittings with minimal changes as set out in the connection diagram. However, ballasts that use an external starter will work with our tube by simply removing the starter. Our advice is to remove or bypass the ballast, this will produce the best results.
All of our tubes are recyclable and conform to CE and RoHS regulations.
Features and benefits
• No flicker
• No UV
• No glass
• No maintenance for the life of the tube, apart from cleaning
• No mercury
• No phosphor
• Payback on energy alone in under two years
ECA (Enhanced Capital Allowance) info LED tubes qualify for the ECA (Enhanced Capital Allowance) scheme.
The Carbon Trust offers up to four year interest free loans to qualifying companies, meaning your business can claim the tax element of the costs and installations back in your year end tax. See www.carbontrust.co.uk for more details.

Connection diagram
LED tubes can be installed with a little modification to the existing internal wiring of fluorescent tubes (see diagram below). By removing the ballast, the LED tubes will fit into existing tomb stones. Before performing any modifications, be sure to cut off the power supply.
