ABSTRACT:
A combination switch and socket is provided that can be easily installed without rewiring an existing fixture to give the user a closet light that automatically turns on when the closet door is opened and turns off when the door is closed. The socket can be screwed into an existing light fixture and the switch can be mounted near the door by merely attaching a bracket adjacent the door. Then, wires connecting the socket and switch can be placed where desired and even attached along the ceiling out of the way in a conventional conduit.
