Re: lighting fixtures

If it was available why would you even want it?
Think of the cost for service

Re: lighting fixtures

Jim, huhh? We install more 277 V fixtures than 120 V, and there is no diference in the quotes, just clarification of voltage.

I can buy ballast at the same price all day long and the lamps are the same in either fixture.

Re: lighting fixtures

2000 IBC, Section 1003.2.5.1 Protruding objects are permitted to extend below the minimum ceiling height required by section 1003.2.4 provided a minimum headroom of 80 inches (6'8") shall be provided for any walking surface, including walks, corridors, aisles and passageways. Not more than 50% of the cieling area of a means of egress shall be reduced in height by protruding objects.

Hope this helps

Re: lighting fixtures

i assumed it had to do with safety issues because we never had a problem with 120 volt fixtures on store shelving
