Anyone know how to wire a wire harness?

[Chris2222000]

Hey guys,
I just got a new icecap e ballast and i got the male wire harness with it and need to connect the harness to the mogul sockets two wires (black and white). The harness has what looks like three screws where you put the wires. I assume the third one is for the ground. I assume it matters what the order is color wise to the harness. There were no instructions with it.
Heres the link: http://www.premiumaquatics.com/Merc...duct_Code=ICE-WHQD-M&Category_Code=Ice-halide

Thanks!
Chris

if you go to icecap's website, they have wiring diagrams for their products

I second this...that is the safest way!

Thanks guys, I guess I should have mentioned that I have already looked there but they didnt mention anything on how to wire the little male end quick disconnect to the wire that comes out of the mogul socket. Ive emailed them and hes checking on it to make sure he gives out the right instruction.

On the disconnect where the wires are supposed to be connected i see a letter N on one end and on the other side where a wire goes there is a L. Do you guys know which color wire that corresponds to? I tried calling Icecap but they close before I get off of work.

Ok I assume that L is live and N is neutral. Which would mean that black would be going to the L (live) and green to the N (neutral) and then white will just go to the other. Does that sound about right?

 

[Saltysteele]

well, actually, i think white is usually live. but, i'd wait to hear from the icecap guy, or at least an electrician here

white is live, black is negative, and green is common ground

Black is always hot white is always common or neutral and green is ground

Thanks everyone who has posted, Im still waiting for the email, but im pretty sure that the black goes to the live side and the white goes to the neutral side with the ground wire in the middle.
