A lamp socket is also called a lamp holder. It is the connection between the lamp (fixture) and the light source, i.e. the part where you turn the light source into the lamp. We have listed the 8 most common lamp sockets for you. Types beginning with the letter E are rotary sockets and types beginning with GU are plug-in socket.
E27
The large, most common rotary socket. The thread / diameter is 27 mm thick and suitable for 230V, i.e. most LED lamps.
E14
The small rotary socket. The thread / diameter is 14 mm thick, and thus suitable for the somewhat smaller LED lamps. Like the E27 lamp socket, it is suitable for 230V. You often see this lamp socket in ambient lighting such as table lamps.
G9
The G9 lamp socket is a plug-in socket with two loops with 9 mm spacing between them. This lamp socket is often found in smaller wall or ceiling lamps.
GU10
This plug-in socket has a bayonet fitting: two pins with 10 mm spacing between them. Light sources with this lamp socket are mainly used for spotlights and are suitable for 230V. The pins are inserted into the holes of the spotlight and the light source is fixed in place with a quarter turn.
GU5.3
These lamp sockets have two small metal pins with 5.3 mm spacing between them that conduct the current. They are also called bipin-foot or plug-in-foot sockets. Light sources with this lamp socket are mainly used in bathrooms, kitchens or outdoors because they are suitable for 12V, which is a safe voltage for wet areas. Please note that you always need a transformer for a 12V light source.
GX53
This plug-in socket has a bayonet fitting with pins spaced 53 mm apart. The lamp is fixed by pressing the light source into the fixture and then turning it a quarter turn. The GX53 lamp socket is mainly used for ceiling lamps.
G53
Many halogen spotlights use a G53 lamp socket. Nowadays, G53 LED spotlights are also available. It is a round lamp socket with pins at the bottom. Only the AR111 light source has a G53 lamp socket. The AR111 light source has a diameter of 111 mm and is mainly used in large surface-mounted and recessed spotlights on 12V. Please note that you always need a transformer for a 12V light source. The light source is fixed by screws or clamps.
Whether a fixture comes with a light source is always indicated in the specifications. When the lamp is delivered without a light source, it's wise to immediately order the right number of light sources. In the specifications, you'll find which light source(s) you need. Make sure that the wattage of the fixture matches the light source.
To complete your lighting, you often have to choose the ideal light bulb yourself. It is important to pay attention to the following elements when ordering your suitable light source:
A lamp can be used for various occasions. At lampandlight, we distinguish between different types of light.
Functional
With functional light, you always have sufficient lighting. Functional lighting is useful in spaces where you want to see well. Think of the kitchen or bathroom, but also in a home office, you don't want to sit in the dark.
Reading
You don't read in the dark. By choosing this type of light, you're sure that you won't have to put your book away. So, choose one of these lamps when this is the purpose of your lighting.
Ambiance
Ambient lighting creates coziness in your interior. This type of lighting gives a warm feeling in the house. Ideal for, say, the bedroom. Set the right mood with this type of lamps.
Direct light
Direct light comes straight from the light source and can therefore illuminate your entire surface. Direct light is mainly directed downwards and shines directly into the space. Direct light is handy when you want to perform a task.
Indirect light
The shade of the lamp can provide indirect light. Here, the light is reflected by the fixture or the shade creates a playful effect in another way. Indirect light is a atmospheric way to illuminate your space.
Orientation
Orientation lighting helps you find your way in the dark. This way, you don't trip when looking for the stairs or when coming home in the dark in the evening.
Fun
Lighting can definitely also be fun to look at. The playful effect of these lamps gives a cheerful touch to your interior. If you need an eye-catcher, then this type of light is the right choice.

At lampenlight we divide our lamps into a number of living styles to ensure that your new lamp matches your interior.
Design
This living style is recognisable by its refined and well thought-out design. There is a lot of attention to finish and luxury with an eye to detail. Elements such as butter-soft leather, rich fabrics and perfectly finished wood can be found in this living style. Often, the basis is quite light and accent colours are used as a counterbalance and to make the interior personal.
Art Deco
An Art Deco interior is often more exuberant and reminiscent of the 1920s. For example, rich colours such as deep purple, peacock blue, yellow ochre and dark green. Often finished with gold details. Materials such as velvet, satin, marble, varnished wood and crystal glass are reflected in the Art Deco style of living. The geometric shapes, lush prints and mirrored surfaces are often seen. In short, a luxurious living style!
Retro
As the name suggests, the retro living style is reminiscent of the old days, after 1980. Warm colours such as yellow ochre, emerald green, dark blue and cognac are widely used. You often see 70's prints with circles and zigzags, among others. But also timeless materials such as marble, warm walnut and a mix of metals.
Country
The country living style uses natural materials such as untreated wood, reed, rattan, wool, cotton, linen and concrete. This brings a lot of warmth and light into your interior. The design of this living style is quite simple, no bells and whistles. This gives you a "pure nature" feeling.
Industrial
This is an honest living style with pure, raw and no-nonsense materials. These include concrete, stainless steel, wood and steel. An industrial interior is often more lived-in, which is also reflected in the furniture and materials. You create an 'old soul' in your interior.
Country/Rural
This living style emphasises the natural beauty of materials such as weathered, raw wood, wool and linen. Common colours in this living style are earth tones and sand colours such as white, beige, taupe and warm grey, often with a matt finish. The shapes are often austere, but appropriate to the material. A very warm and clean living style!
Classic/Antique
The Classic/Antique living style is very timeless and will never get boring. It often exudes luxury and is very elegant. There is a lot of symmetry, and an antique piece of furniture or lamp should not be missing. You see many graceful curls and robust shapes with materials such as glass, velvet, silk, marble and wood. Intense colours like burgundy and deep purple are characteristic for this living style, with details in gold, silver or crystal.
Modern
This is a minimalist and rather basic interior without too many knickknacks and accessories. You'll find a lot of clean lines and angles in furniture in this open-plan living style. They often have colours such as grey, beige, black and white. Quality is chosen over quantity, which is why you often see designer furniture in this living style.
Oriental
The Oriental living style is very atmospheric, with warm colours such as terracotta, patrol, beige, white, yellow, gold, brown and black. You see many patterns throughout the interior, both on a rug and on a pendant lamp. Raw wood, fabric, mosaic and mirrors cannot be missed in this living style.
You mount the mounting plate on the ceiling or the wall and use it to attach the lamp. Based on the dimensions, you can see how much space you need to install your lighting. Also, make sure to check where your electrical connection point is and whether the mounting plate completely covers the connection point.
The number of light points on a lamp indicates how many separate light sources the lamp contains. This directly affects the amount of light and the light distribution in a room.
Application and benefits:
When choosing a lamp, it is important to consider the number of light points to ensure sufficient light for the room and application.
The number of volts for a light represents the required supply voltage. The standard power supplied to the home is 220/230 volts. Almost all lights in our range can be connected to your mains power. There are a few exceptions, however (12 volts). For each product, the voltage is given in the specifications, under ""light source"". These lights require a transformer to convert the current from 220/230 volts to 12 volts. You cannot simply connect these lights to your mains without a transformer, as this will destroy the light source or fixture.
The wattage of a lamp generally indicates the power needed to operate LED lighting. It has nothing to do with brightness, which is expressed in lumens. A lower wattage means a more energy-efficient lamp. Do you want to be sure your lamp is energy efficient? Then also check the energy label.
The exact meaning of wattage varies slightly depending on the type of lamp:
The total number of lumens indicates the brightness of a lamp. You adjust the number of lumens based on the size and function of the room. To help you out, here's an estimate of lumens per square meter for various rooms in your house.
| Room | Lumens per m2 |
| Living Room | 400-500 lumen per m2 |
| Kitchen | 700-800 lumen per m2 |
| Bedroom | 300-400 lumen per m2 |
| Bathroom | 700-800 lumen per m2 |
| Hallway | 300 lumen per m2 |
The number of lumens for a lamp can be found in the product description and specifications. This ranges from 55 lumens to 3300 lumens.
The number of opburning hours indicates how long the lighting will last before you need to replace it. LED lamps generally last the longest: between 20,000 and 50,000 operating hours. Keep in mind that the lifespan depends on usage and environment.
The term Kelvin (K) refers to the color temperature of the light emitted by the lamp, and sometimes also to the color characteristics of the light itself. This affects the ambiance and functionality of the illuminated space. The Kelvin rating determines whether the light is warm, neutral, or cool.
Up to 2700K: Extra Warm White Light
2700K - 3000K: Warm White
3001K - 4000K: Neutral White
More than 4000K: Cool White
Dim to Warm: adjustable in Kelvin
