ABSTRACT:
A luminaire for a rod-shaped fluorescent lamp provided with pin bases at both ends and having an elongated support profile whose width is only slightly larger or smaller than the diameter of the lamp envelope and which at both ends has sockets provided with contacts. Each socket has a groove to accommodate the base pins when inserting the lamp in an axially parallel manner. Intermediate members of an insulating material are arranged on the lamp bases, while the rear side of each intermediate member is provided with a cross limb extending parallel to the base pins and being formed in such a manner that the individual base pins are located on different sides of the cross limb. When inserting the lamp in the luminaire, the intermediate member engages the groove of a socket in a lock-tight manner, whereby the base pins come into contact with the socket contacts.
