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.

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.
