Replacement ballast 101 help
I have a fluorescent fixture that won't light. I have narrowed to the ballast, with 124 volts in, but 3 new tubes won't even flicker.
The current ballast: Home Star B332I120HOESC
On the internet I can find a similar looking ballast, but the P/N is B232I120RES-A. It claims to be a universal ballast. Anyone know if it will work?

Probably T-8's. That number represents the diameter of the tube.
Old 4' tubes were T-12's which were 1.2" in diameter.
T-8's are .8" or just over 3.4".
There is a problem in your posted ballast number as you have an HO in the number which is incorrect or is a VERY old fixture.
You need a 3 tube universal ballast like..... BU-B332IUNVHP

Now I'll find out how much a PITA it is to install and connect to the lamp sockets.
