Thanks for the response!
That's the part that's confusing me. I have the one ground (green) wire coming from the ballast, that's going to be soldered to the 16/3 wire/plug along with the hot and neutral wire from the ballast.

Do I splice in an extra piece of green wire, from the socket/reflector and join this at the point the ballast's ground wire is going to joined to the cord/plug? ie: 2 ground wires (1 from ballast & 1 from reflector) will be connected to the 1 ground wire in my 16/3 wire? If so, how do I make this Y-join look purty with the heatshrink tubing?

Sorry for all of the dumb questions...
