ABSTRACT:
A light fixture including a channel-shape open ended housing having a top wall and opposed walls. End caps are provided for the housing, each including an end plate with a pair of longitudinally extending tabs spaced laterally apart and formed on their proximate edges with longtiudinal tongues. The caps are reversible such that in one mounted position the tabs project longitudinally outwardly from the housing for acting as mounting tabs when the housing is to be recessed upwardly in the overhead for flush mounting. The caps may be reversed on the ends of the housing to dispose the tabs within the housing itself. In this configuration a pair of lamp sockets may be mounted directly from the tabs. The lamp sockets are formed on their opposite sides with longitudinal grooves into which such tongues are received in a friction fit arrangement to be held in position.
