Abstract:
A method of retrofitting a plurality of LED bulbs to a fluorescent tube fixture with a ballast, a fluorescent tube receptacle, a reflector housing and a lens comprises: removing the lens from the reflector housing; disconnecting the ballast from a mains power supply line and removing the ballast and the fluorescent tube receptacle from the housing. The mains mains power supply is wired to a plurality of Edison socket light-emitting diode (LED) bulb sockets extending from a body defining an electrical junction box and threading a plurality of LED bulbs into the bulb sockets. The electrical junction box is mounted to the reflector housing. The fixture lens is reinstalled to the housing such that the bulb adapter is received in an enclosure defined by the housing and the lens.
