Is a wire marked comm a ground wire?
Probably not. We'd need to know what the wire goes to in order to be certain about this.
When connecting chain switch what is done with the neutral wire and white wire from ballast?
no
Can you wire a 120 volt ballast to a 347 volt circuit?
No, not a good idea. You have to use a 347 volt ballast.
How do you wire 347 volts ballast to 110 volt feed?
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.
What do you do with the extra blue wire on a replacement ballast?
Cap the extra wire with the appropriate size wire nut so that it will not short out against grounded objects.

How can 5 fluorescent lights be connected together?
Connect them in parallel. The black wire from the ballast to the black line wire. The white wire from the ballast to the line neutral. Connect the ground wire to the ground screw which is located in the body of the fixture. Grounding of the fixtures is essential.
Where is the ballast resistor on a 1972 Ford F-250?
I was told that the ballast resister is a twisted wire within the distributor cap area.

Does a ballast use electricity if no bulbs are present?
If you mean the ballast in a fluorescent light fitting where the ballast is wired in series with the tube, the answer is "No". Explanation: If no tube is in place, the light fitting's circuit is "open" so there is nothing to take any current from the "hot" supply wire and return it to the "neutral" wire.

Yes, but it will not work.

Cap the extra wire with the appropriate size wire nut so that it will not short out against grounded objects.
How do you change points distributor to electronic distributor on 72 Monte Carlo 350 engine?
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.
How do you test a ballast for fluorescent fixture?
Turn off the power, remove the bulbs, and remove the cover to expose the ballast. If you see tar leaking from the ballast it is bad and must be replaced. If you see no tar then proceed. Use a multimeter to check for continuity. The yellow and blue wires are the power wires and the white wire is neutral. With the meter set to ohms check between the yellow wire and white wire at the end where it connects to the light. If you get no reading the ballast is bad. Now check the other side where power is coming in. No reading and the ballast is bad. If you get a reading at both ends it is good. Check for loose wires.
How do you wire 3 - 4' fluorescent light fixtures end to end to 1 ballast?
More information is needed to answer this. We need the ballast and bulb type. If this ballast is not made to do what you want then it should not be done. It can cause damage to the ballast and cause fire.
