hey all. got a question for all of you pros out there, especially those of you who have constructed your own HPS ballasts. through research, i have put together/wired a mogul socket, transformer, capacitor, and ignitor. everything is ready to go, but i didnt want to take any chances on the part i am confused about. on the short side of the transformer, do i need to buy 14 gauge wire and a male plug set, or can i simply buy a heavy duty extension cord, cut off the female end, and plug it into a regular household socket?
