Is it possible to feed a 30W fluorescent lamp with...
 

a 40W electronic ballast for a single tube ? Otherwise, how to reduce
the current so that a 30 w fluo tube could be fed safely ?

Help please .

Read the specs from the manufacture for your ballast. Some ballasts can
support other than normal lamp sizes. Trying to use a standard double lamp
ballast for one lamp will not work with what I am familiar with. Not to say
that someone, somewhere does not make one.

I have no specs paper of the ballast I have. I tried it with a 36W fluo
lamp, it works.

The ballast label has specs. It is required.

the label only specifies the ouput power and the monotube wiring.

Then it is a mono-tube ballast. D'oh!

Yet you have no problem being the IDIOT that utilizes devices
OUTSIDE their rated spec(s).

D'OH!
