Sixty-Eight Posted November 9, 2014 Report Share Posted November 9, 2014 seeing i have an old ballast and im now over LED lights and spent my budget on those lights im thinking of running this old hps ballast but it doesnt have a built in fuse like some ofthe good aussie magnetic ballast do do u think using a power point plug in safety switch would stop a short in the old ballast if it was to happen while im not around?

tangwena Posted November 9, 2014 Report Share Posted November 9, 2014 Hi 68 it will only stop a short to earth not active to neutral you need an overload device (fuse ) for that, but it will not hurt. You can buy combined rcd/mcb 4 outlet orange coloured work site boxes from any electrical wholesaler even bunnings/masters might have them to fully protect all your plug in equipment.I recomend useing them for added safety.Tangwena 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
