need a universal voltage ballast 120/277 volt or a 277volt ballast
A T8 LED tube has to be used with a ballast to bring the correct voltage to the tube for it to operate correctly. Removing the ballast from the circuit will prevent the tube from operating.
yes
No. The bulb has to match the ballast wattage exactly. And you can't interchange different lamps (like metal halide) either. The ballast is specific to that wattage and lamp type. The bulb will either burn out quickly or just not work properly at all
Yes, a ballast is required for HPS (high-pressure sodium) lights. The ballast helps regulate the electrical current and provides the initial high voltage needed to start the lamp. Without a ballast, the HPS light would not function properly.
These tubes need a ballast to operate the tubes. The current and voltage will be marked on the fixtures ballast.

The amount of ballast a tour hot air ballon would need is about six bags of sand. You will need engough support to hold the big group of passengers.
yes..if we replace magnetic ballast with electronic ballast...there is no need of starter if we use electronic ballast.

Yes it should, however most flourescent ballast can serve different wattages check the label on the ballast case.
yes
AnswerThe ballast may need replacement as this acts as a fuse in the system. You can momentarily jump the ballast to see if it will start. A ballast that keeps going out is sometimes caused by bad spark plug wires. Or secondary voltage jumping from coil tower to primary [ballast side] terminal.
It sounds like your ballast is malfunctioning. If it is a magnetic ballast it will probably have tar protruding out of it and the ballast will be very hot. Buy a new electronic ballast. Change the wiring to the end sockets like it is shown on the electronic ballast print that can be found on its label. You will need new tubes for the new ballast. Diameter will be T-8.
ballast are either electronic or iron core induction type so at the end of the day it does not matter what type it is so long as it can handle the wattage of the tube you are trying to drive any thing will work so long as you have every thing in place that the new ballast needs,electronic types need nothing to work ballast types need a starter of some kind
Yes, HID lights need a ballast.
