FAQs
Can I use this LED lamp in any G24d socket?
Yes, provided the socket is a G24d type and your fixture is compatible with either electromagnetic ballasts or direct mains voltage connection. Always ensure power is off before installation.
Does this lamp require a ballast?
This lamp is designed to work with compatible electromagnetic ballasts or can be operated directly via mains voltage, simplifying replacement. Check your fixture's wiring.
What is the expected lifespan of this LED lamp?
The OSRAM Dulux LED lamp has a long service life of up to 30,000 hours, significantly longer than traditional fluorescent lamps.
Is this lamp suitable for outdoor use?

How much energy does this lamp save compared to a fluorescent one?
This LED lamp consumes 58% less energy than conventional compact fluorescent lamps, offering effective cost savings.
What is the color temperature of the light?
The product description does not specify the color temperature (e.g., warm white, cool white). Please refer to the product packaging or manufacturer's specifications for exact color temperature details.
Can I install this lamp horizontally?
The lamp is designed for vertical applications. Performance and lifespan may be affected if installed in other orientations.
Troubleshooting
Lamp does not light up after installation
Ensure the power is on. Double-check that the lamp is fully seated in the G24d socket. Verify compatibility with your fixture's ballast or wiring configuration. Test the lamp in another compatible fixture if possible.
Flickering or inconsistent light
This may indicate an issue with the ballast or the mains voltage connection. Consult an electrician to check the fixture's wiring and ballast performance. Ensure the lamp is securely installed.
Lamp turns off intermittently
Check for overheating by ensuring proper ventilation in the fixture. The lamp may also be nearing the end of its operational life or there might be an electrical supply issue. Confirm it's not exceeding the maximum operating temperature (45°C).
Reduced brightness over time
While LED lamps maintain brightness well, check for any obstructions or dirt on the lamp surface. Ensure the fixture is clean and well-ventilated. If brightness significantly degrades, consider replacement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Safety First: Ensure the power supply to the fixture is turned off before attempting any replacement.
- Ballast Check: Verify if your fixture uses an electromagnetic ballast or if it's designed for direct mains voltage operation. This lamp is compatible with both.
- Removal: Carefully remove the old fluorescent lamp from the G24d socket.
- Installation: Align the G24d plug-in base of the OSRAM Dulux LED lamp with the socket and push gently until it is securely seated.
- Power On: Restore power to the fixture and test the new LED lamp.
Compatibility:
- Base Type: Requires a G24d socket. This is a two-pin base common for compact fluorescent lamps.
- Ballast: Can be operated with compatible electromagnetic ballasts or directly connected to mains voltage (220-240V). Check your fixture's wiring if unsure.
- Environment: Suitable for dry indoor environments. Not protected against moisture (IP20).
- Orientation: Designed for vertical installation.
Care:
- Cleaning: Turn off power to the fixture. Gently wipe the lamp surface with a dry or slightly damp soft cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they can damage the lamp.
- Ventilation: Ensure the fixture allows for adequate air circulation around the lamp to prevent overheating, although LEDs are more heat-efficient than fluorescent bulbs.
