It depends on what voltage you're connecting it to. If this is for a light fixture, you need to know what the voltage is that is being supplied to it. On the ballast, it will have different legs that are marked as what voltage they are. Some are 277,208,240,120. Just use the one that corresponds to the supplied power and just leave the rest alone. Hook up the ballast the same way you would any other ballast for that application and you should be fine. Just make sure you shut off the power. Be safe. If you have not done this before, you should seek help from a professional.
Good luck
The ballast will have one common wire and four or five tap wires. One of these wires will be the default connection and have the end of the wire stripped for connection. If this is not the voltage you want to use, cut the stripped section of the wire off and insulate the end of the wire. Find the voltage lead that you want and strip that lead and connect it to the circuit's 240 volt supply.
Before you do any work yourself,
on electrical circuits, equipment or appliances,
always use a test meter to ensure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized

Things you will need is wire stripper wire nuts. You will have two hots and a ground.take one of the hots to the 220 volt wire then the other hot to the common wire.
There is normally a wiring diagram on the ballast.
You can not do this. The internal wiring of the ballast requires both tubes to be in the circuit. To operate a single tube, a single tube ballast must be used.
The white wire on the supply side. There isn't a common on the output side of the ballast.

No, not a good idea. You have to use a 347 volt ballast.
You don't. A ballast with a 347 volt input is a commercial ballast. The 347 volts comes from a 600 volt three phase four wire Y system. You can change the ballast out to a 120 volt and rewire the unit but in most cases it is cheaper to buy a completely new lighting fixture.

I was told that the ballast resister is a twisted wire within the distributor cap area.
Yes it can. If there is a bad wire in your harness the ballast resistor will get hot, in which causes your coil to overheat and cut out or burn outline.
No, it has a primary resistance wire and if you are installing a electronic dizzy you need to bypass this.
The original wire that goes to the + side of the coil will either be a steel wire or have a ballast resistor inline to cut the voltage to the points. You don't want that with an HEI. Either substitute a copper wire for the steel wire, or remove the ballast resistor and install the HEI.
The ballast resistor is on the left side inner fender.
A 1998 Dakota does not have a ballast resistor.
The ballast resistor is located on the left inner fender.
A 1994 Dodge Ram does not have a ballast resistor.
A ballast resistor is an electrical resistor whose resistance varies with the current passing through it, thus maintaining a constant current.
a ballast resistor drops voltage. In chrysler products it drops to six (6) volts.
