Normally red or black is the hot wire and green is the ground. However someone may have used the green wire as the neutral wire which is normally white. Just connect the black wire from the light to the red wire and the white wire from the light to the green wire and see if it works. If not you have to pull the wires out of the ceiling box and see how they wired it.

What to do with the white wire in track light with black green and white wires if the house does not have a white one?

The white is neutral. The house does have a neutral wire even though it may be black. One of those black wires is the neutral and the other is the hot wire. You will have to determine which is hot and which is neutral. You can easily do this with a voltage tester. The wire that lights the tester is the hot. When you wire the light simply wire the hot to hot, and the white and green to the other wire.


Lamp that has 2 white wires and one green wire which one is the hot wire?

Green wire must be grounded for safety. The two white wires are phase and neutral. You can discover which one is the hot wire by using a mulltimeter. But there is no needing to discover it. About the green wire only an electrician can install it properly. It can be joined to the neutral wire, but it is not advisable for any electrical device. The correct procedure is to connect the ground wire on the recommended manner. Normally lamps do not need to be grounded.


Do I connect the white and the green wires together?

NO. Your GREEN wire is your grounding conductor. Your WHITE wires can be either of two things: 1) A natural white wire will be your (Neutral) line, 2) A "Tagged" white wire is a (Hot) or Live wire. Which means that if your white wire is tagged, it is a "Secondary BLACK" wire. Usually you will find an indication of "tagging" at the front of each sides connection of the wire.
