ABSTRACT:
A new and improved self-contained fluorescent lamp fixture for installation in a conventional incandescent lamp fixture. The new and improved fixture includes an electrical lead wire pivot member for eliminating binding or entanglement of the electrical lead wires interconnecting the socket adaptor and the fluorescent tube and its operative components when the socket adaptor and fixture body cover are rotated relative to each other about the longitudinal axis of the socket adaptor in a plane generally normal thereto for installation and/or alignment purposes. Tool receiving openings are included in the periphery of the socket adaptor for purposes of receiving a hand tool or the like to facilitate tight threaded insertion of the socket adaptor into a conventional incandescent lamp socket. A tubular member is included on the socket adaptor to surround and extend outwardly generally coextensive with a male plug. This tubular member has a diameter greater than the diameter of the female socket outlet in a conventional incandescent lamp fixture in order that the tubular member may be received over and act as a safety guard for the male plug.
