| How to wire fluorescent light fixture? |

| Magnet_Eye:
I want to wire up my cabs light fixture to a plug. It has a green, a black, and a white wire. I have a 3 pronged plug that says 15v, 125v, and the ground. Any help is appreciated! 8) |

From my limited knowledge of wiring, you want the wide prong to be neutral (white), and the narrow one hot (black) and the prong to be ground (green). |

Voila! I save the day. |

Assuming the fixture is the proper voltage for your area (see below), and the ballast (and possibly a starter) are present, you can wire it to a plug. Black (Hot) - Narrow Prong White (Neutral) - Wide Prong Green (Ground) - Buttom Prong AC Line Voltages: 100V - Japan 120V - USA, Canada, Mexico 220V - Europe and Australia Other locations vary |
