Hello!

I am trying to hook up these lightboxes I got a hold of from a recently closed cinema, All I got was the cable-snipped boxes so I need to re-do the wiring.

These are the bases of the cords currently snipped and fitted into the lightbox.

I thought it'd be a matter of matching the colors of the new power cable I would get later, however upon returning home I noticed the wire colors are different between the cables:

(note that is a green with yellow stripe cable)

This is the type of cable I hope to attach. They are New Zealand power cables/supplies so the details may be different from those in the States or elsewhere. I've tried searching for a sort of conversion chart between the common wire colors but to no avail.

If somebody could help me out with this I would be very appreciative. How should I go about rewiring this thing?

Here's an image of the ballast if that helps:
