Can someone help me with wiring the end caps to the ballasts?
End caps have 2 white and 2 black wires. The ballasts have a black, white, blue, brown, and green.
Thanks,
Robb

Connect the two black wires from the end caps to the black wire on the ballast
Connect the two white wires from the end caps to the white wire on the ballast
Connect the brown wire on the ballast to the +120V (live) wire in your power cord (typically black).
Connect the blue wire on the ballast to the 0V (neutral) wire in your power cord (typically white).
Connect the green wire on the ballast to the ground wire on your power cord, as well as connect it to any metallic objects in your hood, such as lamp holders and reflectors. This is for safety and is very important when dealing with electricity near saltwater.
