ABSTRACT:
A lighting fixture with a socket base having a closed and cool running back which reduces the amount of heat transferred to the area behind the lamp socket base and allows lower temperature rated wires to be used in the installation of the lamp socket base. The lamp socket base has raised lugs on which the lamp socket rests. A gasket is placed around or between the lamp socket and the lamp socket base and another gasket is placed between the lamp socket base and the wall or ceiling box. The lamp socket base is constructed as one piece such as from a casting. All of these features help to reduce the amount of heat transferred from the lamp socket to the other side of the lamp socket base and also to the wires in the area behind the lamp socket base.
