okay i started with a 40 amp breaker at main breaker panel,ran this to a intermatic 104 A is the common,1 is hot and 3 is hot,from there i have run 2 and 4 as the timed hots to a sub panel with individual breakers,which should give me 240,the bottom of these breakers have 2 screws and are made for 240 as in there a double breaker,okay so now i ran this to each side of a plug in and i do have 120 on each screw coming from the breaker but i cant get my 240 volt ballasts to fire up,switch them to 120 and plug them in the wall and they work fine,now i have the common running from the timer to the sub panel breaker box but am not using ,as in it goes to the common bar and is otherwise empty.my ballast wires are black is hooked to 240,white to the common and green ground what am i missing?
