Switching light on/off through loosening from socket is not advisable. Light bulb can reach at temperature between 200-260 degrees Celsius and it can be hazardous in physical contact.
Plug a lamp into a working socket of an outlet to ensure the lamp works. Then turn off the switch and plug lamp into all outlet sockets, top and bottom outlets until the lamp doesn't light. Then turn on the switch and the lamp should light. Often a switch in a bedroom is only connected to one socket in a duplex outlet. It is possible to remove a jumper in an outlet to isolate the sockets for just this purpose. Often an electrician will install the outlet upside down (The third prong pointing up, to identify the outlet.
as long as the pins are the same on the plug to socket you just push it in, when a plug has only 2 pins it is double insulated look for 2 squares one inside the other this is the symbol ;double insulated means no metal in casing on the appliance
a lamp in an elctrical circuit provides light and partly heat. a lamp in an elctrical circuit provides light and partly heat.
It as simple as the name implies ring circuit ,it 's in the circular form that is from the panel to the outlet and back to the panel . While radial is from the panel and stop at the out let without going back to the panel.But note that in a ring circuit you must use 6mm cable and 32/30 amp fuse rated.AnswerRing-main circuits must be wired using 2.5-mm2 cables, not 6-mm (whatever that is) cables.
Yes, you can easily use it. Just install it as you would any other 120 volt light fixture and change the bulb from a 240 volt bulb to a 120 volt bulb. It will work just fine.
Just plug it in the socket
A light socket to plug adapter allows you to convert a light socket into an electrical outlet. It can be used effectively to provide power to devices in areas where there are limited outlets, such as in older homes or offices. Just screw the adapter into the light socket, then plug in your device to access power.
No. It just draws less power.
It is not always a screw, but when it is, then just so that it can be attached in the socket of the lamp.
the chrome light socket is just plated in chrome, it can wear off and possibly rust stainless steel never rusts and is far more durable
it is in the trunk you just turn and pull the light out of the socket and the light bulb is a 194 i do believe
i think we may need more info here what do you mean by the socket ? are you just saying the light to the plate is not working ?
There may be an electrial shortage within the socket light or it may just need to be replaced.
Did you check to see if you actually had power to the light socket? Old cars are bad for having bad grounds. Check and clean the light "Housing" connections first if you have power to the socket. The housing and body will sometimes corrode just enough to lose the ground. Just loosening and re-tightening the bolts will some times fix it. When you check for power make sure you use more then one place for a ground. Make sure the fuse connections are nice and clean as they can get a real fine layer of corrosion and then you won't get a connection there either.
Just because the socket is good doesnt mean it has a good positive or ground. This would be the first place to start with a test light, or a OHM Meter. The socket may have erroded contacts down in the bottom preventing the current from getting thru.
TUrn the light off and let the bulb cool for a short while. Then just twist it counterclockwise (to the left) to remove it.
just pull out the socket and the rubber boot, no tools required
