It won't matter where you connect the black or white wire.. You just should make damn sure you connect the ground for sure..It goes on the green screw.

GaGrown Reviewed by GaGrown on . problem with new light I recently bought a 1000 watt MH with a bulb that the guy i bought it from said had 6 months already on it. I had it running for about 4 days on a 12/12 cycle and then it blew my outlet from what i can comprehend. That's not so much the problem as it is that after moving it to another outlet it turns on, i hear the buzzing but the light bulb doesn't light up. If i figet the cord i can see the bulb flicker but it never fires up. I'm just looking to get information on a trouble shoot. Rating: 5
