@@Skyworkss No, you did it right. For convenience, you can remove the plate and easily replace the ballast or ignitor. By the way, I told you the model of the ignitor. Any Z ignitor can be installed
I really didn't know the old fuses were still useful but the electronic fuses won't blow whereas the old fuses are disposable if the filament burns then the fuse is useless
Porcelain fuses are gold in outdoor environments, especially in cold countries. Circuit breakers are very sensitive to cold and moisture. Porcelain fuses are more robust and can handle higher current levels. If you're looking for durability, porcelain is the best option. The plastic on circuit breakers in outdoor environments cracks after a few years.
Interesting

You can easily replace the kit by removing it. The ignitor you use should be a Vossloh Schave Z400 or Z400 D2.
Did I not manage smoothly, or what? Take everything apart, then connect it again in that cramped space - good luck, that's all I have to say!

Yes, I wanted to avoid disconnecting the wires from the terminal block, but it went smoothly anyway. Yes, that can definitely be done.
Are 70w hps good for this space?
I would have wanted a bit less power, but unfortunately, I'm not the one who decides that.
The old one was electronic ballast and the street light fixtures use old fuses don't they use automatics?
No, automatic circuit breakers in outdoor environments are not good at all. They are sensitive to moisture, etc.

But yes, in these cases there is no other solution!

Porcelain is a ceramic material if I'm not mistaken?
Wut happin to that street light?
