Abstract

The contact has a first part with a sprung contact arm protruding into a lamp holder socket (29) pin opening (30) and a second part for threadless connection of a conductor(s). The second part forms a sprung tongue(s) on the side of the contact arm remote from the clamping point (13). The sprung tongue (28) is next to the clamping point and contact arm (12') so the contact arm lateral surface forms a guide for the conductor to be inserted. Independent claims are also included for the following: a lamp holder.
