Take control of your electrical installation with a lamp holder
A lamp holder is a central part of the electrical installation in your home and serves as the fixed point where you can safely connect your ceiling and wall lights. The lamp holder is mounted on the ceiling or wall and connects the lamp to the existing power supply in the home. This makes installation simple and flexible, as the lamp holder enables easy connection and disconnection of lights without requiring major changes to the electrical installation itself.
The lamp holder is an important element because it ensures a stable and safe power supply to your lamps, reducing the risk of loose connections and short circuits. It also contributes to a neat and practical solution where wires and connections are hidden and protected.

FAQ
How do I install a lamp holder?
Installing a lamp holder requires caution and some knowledge of electrical installations. First, switch off the power, remove the old holder and connect the new wires correctly. If you are unsure about the job, consider getting help from an authorised electrician.
Which lamps require a lamp holder with earthing?
Lamps with a metal frame or shade typically require an earthed lamp holder. This is because the metal can conduct electricity and, therefore, needs to be protected against possible installation errors. Always consult the lamp manufacturer's instructions or an electrician if in doubt.
Which wires go where in a lamp holder?
In a lamp holder, the blue wire should be connected to "N" (neutral), the brown wire to "L" (live) and the green/yellow wire to the earth connection if there is one. Always remember to switch off the power before working with electrical installations, and seek professional help if you need help with how to install a new lamp holder.
