No...but you can buy an "autotransformer" that will boost the 220 to 277. Transformers of this kind can be the auto type or isolation type and are available at a much higher cost that it would be to just buy 220 volt ballasts and sell the 277 ones at your next yard sale. The fluorescent lamps probably won't start with such a severe undervoltage (80% rated). If they do start, they won't work well and the lamps will have reduced life.

What are the two faces of photosynthesis?
light face and dark face.Actually it is phase not face. They are light reaction and dark reatcion
Is 220 current straight or not?
A 220-volt current can be either single-phase or three-phase, depending on the electrical system. In residential settings, it is typically single-phase, while in industrial applications, it can be three-phase. The term "straight" isn't commonly used in electrical terminology; however, if you mean whether it is a direct current (DC) or alternating current (AC), 220 volts usually refers to AC.
What is the meaning of U V W in motor?
In the context of electric motors, U, V, and W typically refer to the three phases of a three-phase motor system. Each letter represents a different phase of the electrical supply, with U, V, and W corresponding to the three distinct sinusoidal waveforms that drive the motor. This three-phase system enables smoother operation and more efficient power delivery compared to single-phase systems, resulting in better torque and performance.
16 primary colors?
The mantis shrimp possesses 16 different kinds of color receptors in its eyes. Additionally, these shrimp are able to detect the phase and polarization factors of light.
Cells that are not dividing remain in the phase of what?
the G1 phase, dawg!
Are all 480 Volt light fixtures 3 phase or are some single phase?
I do not believe any lighting fixtures of any voltage have ever been made to work off of three-phase circuits. Light Fixtures are always single-phase 2-wire circuits In the USA the standard voltages for branch circuits are: 120, 208, 240, 277 or 480 The light fixture must be rated to match whichever field voltage is being used. Some light fixtures are made multi-rated so they can be used on more than one circuit voltage
Do any businesses use single phase power?
Single phase power is good for small loads like lighting fixtures and heating devices.
Why use 277v light fixtures instead of 110v light fixtures?
277v light fixtures are more efficient to operate and less expensive to install than a 110v fixture of identical wattage. 277v light fixtures are typically installed when 480V 3 Phase primary electric service supplies a commercial or industrial facility. 277v lighting circuits are single phase circuits using one of the 480v primary phases (A,B & C) to Neutral. The higher voltage allows more fixtures per circuit using smaller conductors and longer runs typically required in warehouse lighting applications. ( Amps = Watts/Volts: 400W/277V Fixture = 1.4 Amps, 400W/110V fixture = 3.6 Amps) With 480V 3 Phase primary service, 110V Single Phase power is created using a Step-down transformer. The voltage transformation process consumes power (kWh) and the 277V fixture will consume less kWh than a 110V fixture if identical wattage, especially in fixtures with ballasts such as fluorescent or High Intensity Discharge (HID), like Sodium, Metal Halide or Mercury Vapor.
Is the type of wiring in most homes single-phase or three-phase?
Single phase.
Single phase and three phase circuit?
Yes, there is a difference between single phase and three phase circuits.
Two phase instruments?
There is no such thing as a two phase instrument. There is only single phase and three phase. You can only have: single phase/ one pole single phase/ two pole three phase/ three pole
How do you convert a 3-phase system to a single phase?
By having a transformer with 3 phase input and single phase out put
How single phase preventer working?
working of single phase preventor
Can you tap off a 3 phase 277volt ac light fixture to power a single phase 120 volt ac recptacle?
NO! The voltages available in the 3-phase system are 480 (if you wire phase to phase) and 277 (if you wire phase to neutral) Don't try it!
What is the advantages and disadvantages of single phase and three phase?
Single phase inherently requires less equipment (it's cheaper). Three phase motors are more efficient than single phase.
How do you derive three phase single way?
3 phase /sqrt(3) * 30 degree phase shift = single phase.
How do you connected 3 phase motor to single phase power?
Use VFD to make 3 phase from single phase source.
