ABSTRACT:
A lampholder-socket is attached to a housing having a smaller cross section than a circline lamp. The housing is preferably block-shaped, having four edges parallel to the axis of the circline lamp when installed. The diagonal distance between the edges is almost as large as the diameter of the circline lamp. The lampholder-socket extends partially inside the housing and partially outside the housing. Its terminals are adapted at one end to engage the circline lamp pins outside the housing when the circline lamp surrounds the housing and are adapted at the other end to receive connecting wires of components inside the housing, preferably with a poke home connection. A support, preferably a pair of stationary fingers extending from the housing at points spaced from each other and from the lampholder-socket, hold the circline lamp in place together with the lampholder-socket when the pins of the circline lamp engage the terminals.
