GE LAMPS LED
Frequently asked questions
Common questions about GE LAMPS LED from 3G Electric.
What is the GE LAMPS LED Base Socket Adapter used for?
The GE LAMPS LED Base Socket Adapter, part number LED/E26/EX39/ADAPTER, converts a Medium Screw (E26) lampholder to accept LED lamps. It supports up to 80 W and operates at 600 VAC. The overall length is 1 3/8 inches, and it has a silver finish. It is used when retrofitting existing E26 sockets in lighting systems where the lamp interface needs to be changed. Because it is a passive adapter, it does not require a driver or control wiring. Verify the lamp base and wattage against the adapter rating before installation.
What shapes and wattages are available in the GE LAMPS LED Medium Screw (E26) lamp range?
The GE LAMPS LED Medium Screw (E26) range includes A19, PAR20, PAR30, PAR30L, and PAR38 shapes. A19 lamps are available in 4 W, 7 W, 9.5 W, and 14 W with frosted finishes and color temperatures such as 2700 K and 3000 K. PAR lamps include a 5.5 W PAR20 rated as a 50 W incandescent replacement at 5000 K, 10 W PAR30 and PAR30L lamps at 3500 K and 4000 K, and a 9 W PAR38 at 3500 K. All operate at 120 V AC and use the E26 base. The PAR lamps have a clear lens and a parabolic aluminized reflector for directional output.
What does the 120 V AC rating mean for GE LAMPS LED lamps?
The 120 V AC rating indicates the lamps are designed for mains voltage circuits in regions where 120 V AC is the standard supply. They are not dual-voltage or universal-input lamps. Connecting them to a different mains voltage, such as 230 V AC, would exceed their rated input and could damage the lamp or create a safety hazard. For installations outside 120 V AC regions, a compatible step-down transformer or a different lamp model rated for the local voltage would be required. Always confirm the supply voltage at the fixture before ordering.
Can GE LAMPS LED PAR lamps be used in track lighting and recessed cans?
Yes. The GE LAMPS LED PAR20, PAR30, PAR30L, and PAR38 lamps use a Medium Screw (E26) base and are intended for directional lighting applications such as track lighting, recessed cans, and retail displays. The parabolic aluminized reflector and clear lens produce a directional beam. Because they are drop-in replacements for existing screw-base lamps, they can be installed in fixtures that already accept E26-base PAR lamps. Check the fixture's wattage limit and whether it is rated for the lamp's heat output, especially in enclosed recessed housings.
What color temperatures are available in the GE LAMPS LED A19 and PAR lamp lines?
The GE LAMPS LED A19 lamps in this catalog include 2700 K and 3000 K options with frosted finishes. The PAR lamps include a 5.5 W PAR20 at 5000 K, 10 W PAR30 and PAR30L lamps at 3500 K and 4000 K, and a 9 W PAR38 at 3500 K. Color temperature affects the appearance of the light: lower values such as 2700 K and 3000 K appear warmer, while 4000 K and 5000 K appear cooler and more neutral. Select based on the ambient lighting and the task requirements of the space.
How does 3G Electric support orders for GE LAMPS LED products?
3G Electric stocks GE LAMPS LED lamps and the LED Base Socket Adapter and ships them globally from its Singapore headquarters. Catalog entries include manufacturer part numbers such as LED/LC/DA19/9SC, LED5DP20B/9SC/BC, LED10DP30B/9SC/BC, LED10DP30LB/9SC/BC, LED/LC/DP38B/9SC/BC, and LED/E26/EX39/ADAPTER, so buyers can match existing installations. 3G Electric provides part-number-level identification and logistics support for international orders. For maintenance and procurement teams, orders can be quoted for individual items or as part of a larger equipment purchase.
