LED fluorescent replacement bulbs may or may not need a ballast, depending on the type of tube. “Plug-and-play” LED tubes are designed to work directly with existing fluorescent ballasts, making installation quick and easy. In contrast, “ballast-bypass” or “direct-wire” LED tubes require the ballast to be removed or bypassed during installation. Always check the manufacturer’s instructions and ensure the LED tube type matches your fixture for safe and efficient operation.
