Post by: yellowtang on August 21, 2008, 03:48:20 PM

Ok I have a PC fixture (CURRENT USA)
Unfortunately one of the ballast burned..........My question is? can Work Horse ballast
be used as replacement of PC ballast?......Might have to do a rewiring to run the PC bullb
and will use the same 4 pin socket,can it be done to run a single 96w bulb?......New PC Current Ballast
cost around $85+tax.

Yes, a work horse will power a 96W bulb. It would be more a question of the dimenisions of the ballast being able to fit in the enclosure.

A workhorse 5 will do it, here's the wiring diagram
