well After taking my old canopy apart and reinstalling the mh light in the knew canopy,I foregot which is the ground wire :redface:
The power cord comming from the socket that plugs into the wall has 3 wires,green,black and white.The back of the mh socket has 2 posts,silver and a gold colored(which i think is the positive,if memory serves correctly).which of the 3 colored wires is the ground?

green is your ground wire, black goes to the gold screw, white goes to the silver screw...

I hear ya :biggrin:
was having one of those momants when couldn't remember anything about wiring.
The new canopy didn't turn out too bad,running a 250 mh at each end and actinic in the middle(just have to pick-up another ballast for the other mh),now if I can get my sump done,it might start looking like a nice set-up :mrgreen:
