I have an electronic ballast which does not have a starter.
what I need is a wiring diagram. The ballast has two connectors . I need to wire it to a linear flourescent lamp with two pins at each end. TIA. |

Can you take a detailed picture of the ballast and put it on a website somewhere? (Or say what the make/model number is) What country is this ballast from or designed to run in?

It is a new Tridonic Atco EC 16 A27 240V 50HZ ballast. 16 watt to power a 16 watt straight flourescent lamp with two pins at each end. |

It will need a starter. Circuit is normally printed in the ballast, but here's one: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi...cent_Light.svg It's a rather low efficiency ballast, which has been illegal to import or manufacture in the EU since 2005. -- Andrew Gabriel [email address is not usable -- followup in the newsgroup] Is this the electronic ballast?

No, it's also a switchstart ballast http://www.tridonic.com/com/en/products/2353.asp?ln=en It's more efficient (EEI = B2) than your earlier one, but it's for different tubes. -- Andrew Gabriel [email address is not usable -- followup in the newsgroup] |

I also need one to run a pls lamp of 9v. I wonder if you could guide me . Thanks. |

OK, that's one of the old tube sizes, and becoming rare because it's not an energy saving tube, and has no energy saving replacement. It may become impossible to obtain in a few years. Does it have to be this exact tube? Could you use a 22" tube? I also need one to run a pls lamp of 9v. I wonder if you could guide me . Thanks. Do you specifically want electronic? (Why?) What is the application which is using the lamps? -- Andrew Gabriel [email address is not usable -- followup in the newsgroup] |
