first read this faq from og it may help.

will need to know more about your ballast and igniter, would suspect your wires are numbered or labeled in some way to tell you how to hook them up and that you have an extension cord or wiring you are going to use for the power cord and to extend the socket wiring. will need to know how each wire are labeled to be of much help.

ok that site deoesnt help at all...thats not even a 150w hps and it has colored wires which arent even labled the same as mine...no offense or anything this is just frustrating me.

the wire i have are.
120v
A1
208v
A2 lamp

240v A3 COM

277v

theres a wire labeled CAP and another com wire both coming from the capacitor. so theres a total of 9 wires. can someone help plz?

[bluntman 420]

k the wire i got are:
120v
208v
240v
277v
A1
A2 lamp
A3 com
theres a wire labeled 'cap' and another 'com' wire coming from the capacitor. so what i did was i spliced the A2 lamp wire with the 120v wire. then i spliced the com wire from the ignitor to the com wire form the capacitor along with the wire labeled 'cap'. and im thinking the white wire form my socket goes to the A2 and the 120v wire, then connect the white wire from my power cord with those? then idk where the black wire form my socket goes or the black and green wire form the power cord. someone help plz!

[bejay]

the 120v goes to the black wire of your power cord
a2 lamp goes to the black wire or center post of the socket and a2 of the igniter
com goes to the white wire of the socket along with white wire from the power cord and a3 of the igniter
a1 to a1 of the igniter
that just leaves the capicitor wich you should have 2 wires or terminal labeled cap where you can attach the capicitor either to by soldering to a terminal or by connecting wire.
the green wire from the power cord is just a ground you can attch it to the ballast box if your using a ballast box.

ok so i think i got everything. thanks alot beejay! but theres a com coming from the capacitor into the long side of the ballast, do i connect it to the com wire that the lamp wire is connected to?

[bluntman 420]

to simplify do i conenct teh com wire from the capacitor to A3 com from the ignitor?

Theres no wiring diagram on the actual ballast itself?

[GaGrown]

There is a diagram for any type ballast,MH or HPS and every volt.
