[QUOTE="Sidewinder, post: 437843, member: 9512"] BS EN 60238:2004+A2:2011 Edison screw lampholders BS EN 61184:2008+A1:2011 Bayonet lampholders Just checked them, and there is a "test device" that must be fitted, which is to prevent access to live parts, I had missed the test device bit, or I had selectively forgotten it! I had honestly believed that the current standards ensured that the contacts were not live and accessible with no lamp fitted, which is kind of true, but only with this "test device" fitted, which doesn't really count!
