2. Lightbulb socket - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lightbulb_socket

   Miniature lamps may have a wedge base made of glass or plastic. The base may be an extension of the glass envelope of the bulb, with the wire leads of the lamp folded up at the base. Some wedge bases are made of plastic and slipped over the wire leads. A wedge base holds the lamp by spring compression in the socket.

3. Bi-pin lamp base - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bi-pin_lamp_base

   The suffix after the G indicates the pin spread; the G dates to the use of Glass for the original bulbs. GU usually also indicates that the lamp provides a mechanism for physical support by the luminaire: in some cases, each pin has a short section of larger diameter at the end (sometimes described as a "peg" rather than a "pin" [2]); the socket allows the bulb to lock into place by twisting ...

Similar in size to W3W if with a T10 base. PC74 T1-3/4 (if removable) or fixed to holder [9] 1 14 V / 1.4W Used on circuit boards for e.g. dash lights, gauge cluster ...

5. Wedge base - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wedge_base

   The wires are usually inserted into a plastic base that the bulb is mounted in, and which is often narrower at the tip than at the bulb, giving it a wedge shape and usually ensuring a tight connection, depending on manufacturing tolerances. Some bulbs have no plastic base, and the wires are simply bent up to the sides of the bulb's glass base.

6. A-series light bulb - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A-series_light_bulb

   Other sizes with a data sheet in IEC 60064 are A50, A55, A67, A68, A71, A75, and A80. Another common A-series light bulb type is the A15 bulb which is commonly used in the US for appliances and ceiling fans. The A15 bulb is 15 ⁄ 8 in (1 + 7 ⁄ 8 in; 48 mm) wide at its widest point and 3.39 inches tall.

7. 3-way lamp - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3-way_lamp

   When they are both energized at the same time, 150 W of power is delivered, and a high level of light is produced. Usually screw-base 3-way bulbs fit into regular Type A sockets (E26D after ISO 60061-1:2014). Larger 3-way bulbs (up to 300 W) have a larger "mogul" base (E39D). These 3-way bulbs can also come in spiral-shaped compact fluorescent ...

8. Edison screw - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edison_screw

   230/240-volt incandescent light bulb with E27 screw baseEdison screw (ES) is a standard lightbulb socket for electric light bulbs. It was developed by Thomas Edison (1847–1931), patented in 1881, [1] and was licensed in 1909 under General Electric's Mazda trademark.

9. Multifaceted reflector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multifaceted_reflector

   These lamps use a bi-pin connector for power: 12-volt MR11 bulbs usually use a GU4 base, and 12-volt MR16 bulbs usually use a GU5.3 base. The common 12-volt MR16 lamps, therefore, require a ferromagnetic or electronic transformer —sometimes misnamed as a ballast —to convert the 120- or 230-volt mains voltage to the extra-low voltage ...
