Hello,

I have few questions.

I'm interested in Cooper lighting Fluorescent Strip:

Metalux Single Lamp 48" Fluo strip (SN140LRS120VU)

So I have 2 questions:

1. Is it hardwired ?
2. Is it come with Rapid Star Ballast.

In the other words I need these for store decoration, so can I just put lamps and go?

Thanks in advance ....

If it doesn't have a corded plug sticking out of it, it is hard wired. But it can be hardwired by removing the corded plug and wiring with NM cable with proper strain reliefs. And it does utilize a rapid start ballast. Bulb is not included, so be sure to buy one.

Thanks, but I still can't see from the website is it coming with a cord.

So, I guess, I'm gonna test my luck.

Thanks anyway

Is it your wish or intent to hardwire it, or use the corded plug? We can help you hardwire it should you need. Of course if it has a plug that's cool too.
