Great idea.. .. keep all the info together. with a basic guide/tips on doin a Flo-gro.It doesnt help that a vast number of Newbs dont read previous posts for their info, before posting their Q's...and most of it seems to be budget CFL Q's but i think it could also help unclutter the other newb/general etc forums of the 1000's of CFL questions each wk..

Any Electricians...
Hope to put up 2 rows of 3 two way splitters with 20watt daylight cfls ie. wach fitting will have 6 20 watt cfls going back to one plug....

Anyone know how to wire this? Or any Ideas I dont want to have 12 seperate lamps.... very much the amateur and no need to reply suggesting alternative hardware as i have this stock already...

Any advice, pictures, diagrams etc would be greatly appreciated

Im an electrician! ta da!

Im actually sota doin the same thing.... Im only running 3 CFLs though, doing two sideways and one vertical. How im doing it is having 3 boxes, cutting an extention wire and running the cut side into one of the boxes, Then, attach the Hot and Neautral Wires of the cable to the designated terminals of the lighting device. After that, Im running wire from each box to the middle box. Connecting matching hots and matching neautrals. And then simply just plug in the regular side of the extension cable. You barely have to splice anything.

If you want to ground your wire, connect a piece of wire to the ground, and ground it to the metal box or grounding wire thats in the cable.

How are you Highlighter, welcome to rollitup, love the name is it a take from the highlander series, I love that show and movies as well. wiring the fixtures is pretty simple as Pico was describing, you may be able to get away with 6 to one plug, I've got four to one .. each having 8 26w.



If you want something like that I would be willing to help, feel free to send me a pm with more information concerning your fixtures etc.. I'm sure we will be able to get something going, if you are able to post pics, please do...

btw this isn't the best place to post questions, in the future you may want to post questions such as these in the newbie section, at least until we get a cfl forum. if interested in a cfl forum please visit the following link, post your votes as well as comments.
