Hello guys and gals.
Went to look at some outside lights today. Had two 20A 240 volt circuits supplying these lights. Took a few lights apart and noticed that the 208 tap was being used instead of the 240 tap. I had 240 volts supply at fixture. None of the lights work.
Could this be the reason they dont work? The balast doesnt smell/look burnt up. I hooked supply to 240v tap but still no light. Is it possible that all of the ballast are bad due to the miswire? Or do you think the light would be ok wired like this? Do you think the light might work for a while like this and then have this problem? Just curious.
Thanks for replies.
