Any house built before 1950 probably only has 2 wires. Black and white. You do not need a ground, that is only to ground the fixture. Hook black to black and white to white and don't worry about it.
The red and green wires are likely the live and ground wires, respectively. To connect them to a ceiling light, connect the green wire to the ground screw on the light fixture and connect the red wire to the live wire on the fixture. Make sure to turn off the power before working on the wiring to avoid any accidents.
If the ballast has only one wire labeled 220, then this is most likely the hot wire. Connect this wire to one of the wires coming from your double leg breaker. The other wire from the breaker will be connected to the neutral or ground wire of the ballast. Make sure to follow all safety precautions when working with electrical connections.
black wire is hot wire .And the white is the common or white is ground. Depends on what your talking about in an outlet or car battery. In a outlet the ground wire is green or bare copper. neutral is red and hot is black (I remember it by hot can kill you so black is death) if I am not mistaken. As for a car battery i think it's the opposite red is hot and black is neutral.
Typically, in a standard electrical wiring setup, the hot wire is black or red, the neutral wire is white, and the ground wire is green or copper. If the wires are all the same color, you can use a voltage tester to identify the hot wire. Be sure to turn off the power before working with the wires.
The main electric panel is where neutral is bonded to ground. There is usually a screw or strap that connects the two so the same type panel could be used as a subpanel and have the neutral and ground unbonded in subpanel.
There is no ground wire in automobiles, they have tires that insulate the vehicle from the ground. There are only positive and negative wires.
No. Or at least not perceptually. The wires only supply electricity to the bulb - the bulb is what limits the current.
You will need to check the ground wires. A loose ground wire can cause the lights to work sometimes and sometimes not to work.
power lose, amp, "contin", voltage, ground. it all has to flow like a river.
An outlet can be properly grounded with only 2 wires by using a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) outlet. The GFCI outlet can provide ground fault protection even without a separate grounding wire.
The red and green wires are likely the live and ground wires, respectively. To connect them to a ceiling light, connect the green wire to the ground screw on the light fixture and connect the red wire to the live wire on the fixture. Make sure to turn off the power before working on the wiring to avoid any accidents.
There should be no reason to install two ground wires in the same conduit. Code requires that only a single path should be required if it is to carry a fault current. This ground wire should be single and continuous from the device back to the distribution panel. It is the fault current that is carried on the ground wire that trips the breaker or fault protection device. Don't confuse grounding wires with bonding wires.
If the ballast has only one wire labeled 220, then this is most likely the hot wire. Connect this wire to one of the wires coming from your double leg breaker. The other wire from the breaker will be connected to the neutral or ground wire of the ballast. Make sure to follow all safety precautions when working with electrical connections.
It doesn't have spark plug wires. The boots that are on the bottoms of the coils are only available as part of a new coil.
Take a test light connect it to a good ground and find the wire that has 12volts or "lights up" the test light ONLY when turning the key to the full start position and will not light on accessory or run.

Had the same problem, check and clean all the ground wires. One to the right fender, one on the front righthand side by the front light and one to the stater.
