Does this metal lamp holder need to be earthed?

Yes. Because the exterior casing is made of conductive metal, it must be earthed using a 3-core electrical cable that includes a green/yellow earth wire. The earth wire should be connected directly to the grounding terminal screw inside the metal base of the unit.

How do I open or take apart the lamp holder?

These lamp holders include an internal safety lock mechanism to prevent the socket from accidentally unscrewing when changing a bulb. To open it, locate the small metal locking tab inside the socket and gently press it down using a small flat-head screwdriver, then carefully unscrew the outer metal cap while holding the tab down.

Which wire goes to which terminal?

The brown live wire must connect to the terminal feeding the centre contact inside the socket. The blue neutral wire connects to the terminal feeding the outer threaded section. The green/yellow earth wire must be connected to the grounding screw attached to the metal casing.

What is the maximum bulb wattage I can use?

The maximum recommended wattage is 60W for traditional incandescent bulbs. LED bulbs use significantly less power (typically 4W–10W), which provides a larger safety margin and improved energy efficiency.

Can I use this fixture outdoors?

No, this lamp holder is rated IP20, meaning it has no protection against moisture or water ingress. It is designed for indoor use only in dry environments.
