A good sentence for the word ballast is.......The ballast is not heavy enough and the boat is about to sink.
When the ballast is to be purchased, look at the schematic that is on the label of the ballast. There it will tell you which ballast is good for which lamps and also let you know what length of tube the ballast is good for. Most of the new electronic ballasts allow for multiple connections of different size lamps.
No, not a good idea. You have to use a 347 volt ballast.
Purchase a new bulb and see if it works. If it does, the ballast is good, if it does't the ballast is bad. Return the new bulb and purchase a new ballast. Or, just buy a new fixture....its cheaper.
No. A three-phase ballast requires three-phase power
It does not have a ballast resistor.It does not have a ballast resistor.
No. Just make sure that the ballast you use is rated for at least as many watts as the lighting you plan to operate with it.
Ballast connection diagrams are on the identification label that is on the ballast.

Unless there is something special about this fixture, it will be cheaper to replace the entire fixture. However if you choose to repair it, the ballast is the most likely reason for its failure. Turn off the power,remove tubes and then the cover from the fixture.You will see a small rectangular object with wires going into it.This is the ballast,usually it is apparent that the ballast has failed.Get the part # from the ballast and pick one up at your local supply house.Replace the ballast and reconnect the wires per old ballast.Also inspect the ends where the tubes connect, sometimes these get burned and do not make good contact.Hope this helps. above answer correct but i would simply replace the tube or tubes first. i have a lot of experience with about 30 of them in my laundromat.
A ballast that smells burnt is going bad. The ballast will have to be replaced to fix the problem.
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.
