The voltage present on the secondary side of the ballast (transformer) varies as to the type of fluorescent tube or bulb that is in the fixture. The voltage will always be higher that the applied line voltage that supplies the ballast.If the fluorescent bulb screws into a lamp type of fixture, then there is no way to measure the voltage at the bulb as the tube and ballast are a combined sealed unit.
