New 115
This is the recently installed American Electric 115 70 watt HPS sag lens on my corner, replaces a 100 watt merc. cooper OVG sag lens. Notice the odd looking nema label there use to be only one number for the lower wattages.

That is wierd! The lowest wattage we use is 100 so I havent seen any NEMA stickers in low wattage with 2 numbers

Dude....there's some 70 wattages in Bowie....in residential neighborhoods on davit arms..and its YOUR responsibility to relamp them...but generally 100 watt is the lowest you OFFER for most installations LOL....PEPCO uses 70 watt and their NEMA tags only has 1 number...."7" and I have never seen "07" LOL
gmercury2000   [Apr 08, 2011 at 04:01 AM]
No we do not maintain them! Those are owned and maintained by Bowie! We maintain the feed and that is all! The smallest we use is the 100 watt HPS! We use to have some 70watt but not anymore

Why did you use to have 70 watt?!
gmercury2000   [Apr 08, 2011 at 04:06 AM]
As far as what our records show we do not maintain any 70w Bowie lights! And from what I have been told we use to have 70w or at least we use to maintain them! But not anymore

eh...I see....so where did you use the last 70 watt lamp...that you told me was in your truck Razz
gmercury2000   [Apr 08, 2011 at 04:09 AM]
I didn't use it anywhere! It's still in my truck! Lol
GullWhiz   [Apr 08, 2011 at 04:15 AM]
Well...please screw that lamp in an AE 327 in Baltimore City.....oh on another note...today I was in DC...as I was driving north back home...and entered MD again...the Baltimore-Washington Parkway on MD side got new poles.....and they are AE 327s with drop lens! The NEMA tag? 75! Means apparently they are 750 watt HPS!

I know of one 115 that has a "07" tag on it, it was installed about a year ago, @Jace I guess those 327s must be custom order since its not a standard option.

I've only seen AEL do this David F. has a pic in his gallery that has a 35w HPS 115 that says "03". GE and Cooper use one digit for 35, 50, 70 watts.
