This paper is devoted to the study of Wirtinger-type inequalities for the Lebesgue $\Delta$-integral on an arbitrary time scale $\mathbb{T}$. We prove a general inequality for a class of absolutely continuous functions on closed subintervals of an adequate subset of $\mathbb{T}$. By using this expression and by assuming that $\mathbb{T}$ is bounded, we deduce that a general inequality is valid for every absolutely continuous function on $\mathbb{T}$ such that its $\Delta$-derivative belongs to $L_{\Delta }^{2}\,([a,\,b)\,\cap \,\mathbb{T})$ and at most it vanishes on the boundary of $\mathbb{T}$.
