extending electric box / ballast questions

Nov 14, 2006 5 Replies

All-


1) I am putting pegboard on the wall, and will be putting 1/4" strips on the wall as spacers. The area includes one outlet, and I would like to keep this flush with the new pegboard. Are there extenders I can buy at the big box stores that would keep the wiring inside the box up to the surface of the pegboard?


2) Are there ballasts for flourescent lighting that do not hum? I know I read there are but can't remember the specs? I am using 8' bulbs in a workshop.



thanks all


Yes, there are extension sleeves for the outlets and you can get an electronic ballast for a 2- F296 T 12 fixture, which won't hum
