Read these five fields before ordering
Use the old bulb and fixture label together. A shared base or wattage figure answers only part of the fit question.
- 01
Socket and shape
Match G9 exactly. The T4 code describes the bulb envelope, not the socket. Open the G9 base guide. Check the T4 shape profile.
- 02
Electrical rating
The source lists 120 V. Confirm that against the fixture and local supply.
- 03
Brightness, not “watts”
Target about 800 lumens. The 60 W figure is input power, not brightness.
- 04
Physical clearance
The official maximum overall length is 1.69 inches. Check shade, cover, and neck clearance.
- 05
Heat, controls, and location
Enclosed-fixture use is not stated; it is marked dimmable; a wet/damp rating is not stated.

G9 · Looped bi-pin
A G9 bulb base has two U-shaped wire loops with nominal 9 mm center-to-center spacing. It pushes straight into the socket; voltage and capsule dimensions must be checked separately.

Questions about 0487900
What socket does Westinghouse 0487900 use?
Westinghouse lists this model with a G9 base. Look for the same complete base code on the socket or old lamp. The T4 shape is a separate specification.
Is Westinghouse 0487900 dimmable?
Yes. The official record marks this model as dimmable, but the installed dimmer must also support the lamp technology and load.
Can Westinghouse 0487900 be used in an enclosed fixture?
The source snapshot does not state an enclosed-fixture rating. Do not infer one from shape or wattage; confirm on the bulb or manufacturer page.
