ABSTRACT:
A diagnostic device and associated operational procedure are used to both verify the integrity of components of high intensity discharge light fixtures and also troubleshoot problems in the wiring connecting the light fixture to the AC power source (transformer). The diagnostic device is a rugged, self-contained unit that can be connected across the ballast in the fixture for verifying component integrity, while also being adapted to load the AC power line that powers the fixture to detect problems in the wiring between the AC power source and the fixture.
