How to wire 9w G23 bulb and ballast

[Icantdiyy]

Hey guys, I need some assistance in wiring a G23 Uv bulb with a 9w magnetic ballast on the attached pic.

Totally lost with how to wire it. There's 4 connections from the ballast. Not sure which goes to the bulb and which goes to the mains. I have also read online that I would need to earth the ballast.

I don't want to guess work it since the uv bulb was quite expensive and I wouldn't want it to blow up.

Any help would be appreciated.

According to the picture on the ballast that is for a 9W T5 florescent tube not a 9W PL lamp. There are only two connections on that ballast, though each connection has the facility to take two wires.
If you are confident it is OK to use that ballast it is put in series with the lamp.
Live from one side of ballast, a wire from the other side to one side of the lamp, and neutral to the other side of the lamp.
The starter shown on the diagram is built in to a PL lamp.

Is there any particular difference between the ballast for the fluorescent tube and the ballast for the pl lamp? The guy at the store gave the this ballast.

Would the wiring be like the below pic?

Probably. A 9W T5 tube runs at 0.17 amps as stated on the ballast. A PL lamp has a thinner glass tube so therefore will run at a lower current with a higher running voltage. I don't know what the figures are however. It may be over run, maybe OK.

The difference in currents can be found here, your lamp is a Compact lamp, a Tube is a Linear lamp.
Most of these are obsolete now, replaced with Electronic ballasts and a 4 pin lamp
