These are some rapid start ballasts that either are dead, literally threw sparks all over the place, or have ground faults.

what's a ground fault? Neutral

It's basically leaking current that goes to ground instead of returning to the source by the neutral. On a ballast it may prevent the tubes from lighting, or literally trip the breaker LOL.
