ABSTRACT:
Electrical connectors are provided with an electrically insulating base member having a connector mounting portion from which at least one pair of mounting lugs extend from an interior surface thereof. A pair of spaced-apart clamp-type connectors, each of which includes a clamp member having a generally U-shaped portion, are provided so as to resiliently engage (and thus mount) an electrical component (e.g., a cylindrical type lamp). The connectors define mounting holes for receiving a respective one of the mounting lugs, whereby the connectors are mounted to said insulating base member. A pair of ribs is provided on the connectors (preferably adjacent the mounting holes) so as to establish a vent space between said connectors and the interior surface of the base member's connector mounting portion. The established vent space allows heat generated during use of the electrical component to dissipate.
