The terminology T8 suggests to me that the fixture is a fluorescent fixture. These types of tube fixtures need a ballast to make the tubes ignite. If you are trying to operate this type of fixture on 220 volts, you will need a ballast that requires a 240 volts input voltage source.
1You could get 220-240V from using the two live ["hot"] wires rather than one live and one neutral. 2Tim, Industrial control transformers are available to get 120 volts from 277 volt systems. If you feed one of these with 120 volts to the secondary coil, it will put out 277 volt from the primary. However, these are rare and are not cheap. If you are trying to use surplus 277 volt fluorescent lights on a 120 volt system, it would be cheaper to replace the ballasts in the fixtures. Another approach would be to use an autotransformer with a 240 volt primary and a 32 volt secondary. If you feed it with 240 volt and wire it to boost +32 volts that will give you 272 volt which should run the lights. But again, you are looking at $60 - $100 for one circuit of lights. 3If you have access to three phase power..... Phase to ground on a 480v 3 phase system is 277v.

Operating at half the required voltage, the lamp will not operate at full capacity if it comes on at all.
999 Volts A Kilovolt is 1000 volts.
Yes, but the 600 volts would have to be transformed down to 480 volts. Direct connection to the motor with 600 volts would overheat the motor to destruction.
Wiring 347 volts to the 120-volt tap on a multi-tap ballast can cause serious damage to the ballast and connected fixtures. The excessive voltage can lead to overheating, insulation breakdown, and potential failure of the ballast components. This may also pose a fire hazard and could damage the connected lamps or fixtures. It's crucial to always match the voltage rating of the ballast with the supply voltage to ensure safe and proper operation.
In order to install 12 volt lights on a 48 volt cart, you will need to use a voltage reducer to step down the voltage from 48 volts to 12 volts. This will allow the lights to operate properly without getting damaged. You can connect the lights to the 12 volt output of the voltage reducer and follow the wiring instructions provided with the reducer for proper installation. Be sure to follow all safety precautions and consult a professional if needed.
To convert 24 volt trailer lights to 12 volt, you will need to install a voltage regulator or resistor in the circuit to reduce the voltage to 12 volts. Alternatively, you can also replace the 24 volt lights with 12 volt lights designed for trailers.

A 277 volt lighting fixture is one that is usually used in an industrial application. The reason for this is the voltage rating. A voltage potential of 277 volts is the voltage to neutral (ground) of a three phase four wire 480 volt distribution system. 480 volts / 1.73 = 277 volts. Rather than having to add a transformer to the system to provide 120 volts for lighting, manufactures produced a ballast for fluorescent fixtures that operates on the 227 volt potential.

Connect two 12 volt batteries in series and you will have an output of 24 volts.

To convert 12 volt trailer lights to 24 volts, you would need to install a voltage step-up converter or a voltage doubler circuit in your trailer's electrical system. This will effectively double the voltage to the lights, but make sure you choose a converter that can handle the power requirements of the lights and wire it correctly to ensure proper functionality and safety. It is recommended to consult a professional electrician or mechanic for assistance with this modification.
To convert low voltage lights (e.g. 12 volts) to wattage equivalent to 110 volt lights, you would divide the voltage by 10. For example, 50 watts in a 110 volt system would be equivalent to a 5 watt bulb in a 12 volt system.
