Wireing a Light....

Hi All
I just need some help with wiring a T5 Light Ballast.
Here is what I have.






I have all the bits and pieces I just need to know how to put them together...

Thanks

 

Gareth, this is interesting! I also have 2 of these, but could not get it to work.
Do you know if it will work with T8 tubes?
I've also heard that the wires on one side, need to be shorter. How short?
Watching this....

 

Hi Gert
I see on the one Baluster I have it says on one side 2m max and the other says 1m max
so I don't know if this help you but that's what is says.
as far as I know they will only work with T5s not sure it will work with the T8s

Hoping some one will shed light on this for us....

 

I have no idea if this helps but found this on the net http://www.poweres.com/images/diagrams/PES120ET5-rs.gif

 

Thanks Franna
I am going to try it tonight and see if they work.

 

Why don't you ask an electrician? You are just going to mess up the place and blow something if you don't know what you should be doing.....:blink1::bigsmile::blink1::bigsmile:

 

Wow now that's LOVE for you

 

The love is there, the faith in his DIY abilities are lacking a bit....LOL

 

I see GG's support here...

If Gareth blows something up, it'll cost to replace... which means less jewellery for her!

 

:bigsmile::bigsmile::bigsmile:

No it's not that, it's just that if he blows it up, then he wants new ones....and to add to that its more cleaning for me......
Although he's very careful lately, he does things properly these days, I guess I should have more faith...

Gareth if you could get the camera a bit closer to the drawings and the name plate i think i might be able to help you guys? i think lol
oh and if there was a pamflet or something with that would also help a bit

 

Will try to get it tonight for you.
