A lightbulb socket, lightbulb holder, light socket, lamp socket or lamp holder is a device which mechanically supports and provides electrical connections for a compatible electric lamp base. [1] Sockets allow lamps to be safely and conveniently replaced (re-lamping).
The E11 base is sometimes used for 50/75/100 Watt halogen lamps in North America, where it is called the "mini-can", and tighter threads are used to keep them out of E12 base nightlights and other places where they could start a fire. [citation needed] There are also adapters between screw sizes, and for adapting to or from bayonet caps.
These bulbs tend to be transparent white or colors, and are often ornately designed with crystal-like patterns. Later bulbs called C 7 + 1 ⁄ 2, have diameters of seven and a half 1/8th inches (15 ⁄ 16 in, or 24 mm) using an E12 candelabra base; however, these have a blunt shape (and should therefore be called B 7 + 1 ⁄ 2, or B24).
The GU24 fitting is intended to maintain the energy efficiency of the light by preventing an occupant from using an incandescent bulb instead of a CFL. Adapters to use incandescent bulbs in a GU24 fitting are illegal in the State of California as they would be a fire hazard in fixtures designed for the lower heat output of a CFL bulb. [2]
