So i just got this 465w PL systems ballast for twenty bucks off craigslist...
Didnt come with a lamp or a socket tho so i gotta get those...
The ballast has a lamp cord socket on the back...for two round prongs and one flat one...
My question is do I have to buy a socket with a lamp cord on it?? They are more expensive..
Or could I just buy a porcelain socket like when wiring a kit and insert the wires in to the sockets on the ballast? Or would that not work without a ground?
Please help me out here
Thanks gang![Shocked :shock: :shock:](/styles/smilies/icon_eek.gif)
