this a very general question there are several differnt brands, you need to be very specific

Its for a cool tube i bought minus the lead and socket . It will be pluged into a 600w ballast .

I thought they were all just the same that why i save the details ,

still what brand of light do you need the plug for? not the wattage

Its all the same fittings i thought, Its a 3 pin head connection that just plugs into the ballast

The light is just the bog standerd hps cool tubes that can eather run a 400 600 1000 watt ballasts

Im sure some 1 has had to look for these before because some hydro stores sell there shades un-wired

Cheers bonz im to lazy now days for diy stores . .. The way it works is two wires have to go into the light fittings then at the other end were it goes into the ballast the is like a 3 pin socket ,
Like 1 that goes into a pc tower only thats the female adaptor i need to find a male one
