I'm trying to determine whether my ballast is functioning properly. Voltage across the socket, (hot tab to thread) is 264 Volts. Does this sound right?

I think it's about right. The open circuit voltage of 400W should be about 250V to 300V.

Thanks Len. I had a bulb die prematurely, and I wanted to make sure the ballast was not the issue.
