I have one 600 watt, digital ballast and one 4 bulb t-5 floresent light plugged into one 15 amp surge proctector. The surge protector is plugged into a digital dual outlet timer that is plugged into your standard 110 outlet. During the final phase of my flowering period, i noticed most days when i walked into the room in the morning my lights were not on when they should have been on and the reset button on the surge protector was lite. When I reset the surge protector the lights would come on and usually about 3 hours later I would check on the and the lights would be out again, due to a tripped surge protector. The breaker in the main breaker pannel was never tripped and I am wondering weather I have a bad surge protector or is my brand new digital ballast giving me trouble. I was using a 600 watt high pressure sodium light as would be used to bloom. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
