Butch, do you go to Home Depot?
Most times the lighting in these stores are Relock, at least in my area.
I have seen problems with an older style that used plastic for the latches and it would get brittle and break, any of the new stuff we put in the latches are made of steel.

One electrical company I worked for had me replacing countless ballasts sometimes three or four days in a row
on this kind of arrangement. It's done a lot in commercial buildings.

How would you explain this?
So are you saying the relocks caused the ballasts to go?Originally posted by physis:

Nice save Iwire!
No, I'm sorry if I left that impression. Actually this contractor was pulling a fast one on his account. When there tubes needed replacing he instead of replacing tubes upgraded the fixtures to T-8's.
