I bought a 1000 watt hydrofarm xtrasun magnetic hps ballast, it works fine fires up spent get too hot, but the power cord from the wall to the ballast gets pretty hot when i first plug it in, right up at the wall and about 3 inches down the cord, when i unplug it the metal contacts are too hot to touch, but if i leave it in for more then 15 or twenty minutes it cools back down slightly, the cord is still hot but the Plug itself cools back down, is this normal? I'm trying to explain it as best as I can, let me know if this doesn't make sense i can try to word it differently maybe lol
