L1 Pendant Set 15w

The L1 pendant set is a basic low energy ceiling rose. It's a dedicated low energy fixture, so it meets part L of the current building regulations.

L1 lamps are a standard size and shape, and the shade ring is a standard size - you can fit any shade you like, we've got some fantastic, stylish shades to choose from.

What is L1?

L1 is a new type of bulb connector. It is a special type of lamp cap that can only be used with Low Energy bulbs. This means that all L1 light fittings are dedicated low energy fittings. i.e. it is impossible to install a normal high energy incandescent bulb - you can only fit a low energy L1 bulb.

There are various designs and shapes of L1 bulbs, all of which use the latest in technology and provide innovative designs and some of the smallest sizes available today.

The special fitting uses two pins on the bulb and a third, non-metalic pin on the bulb holder. It's this third pin that prevents a non L1 bulb being used. L1 bulb holders are very safe too - because the electrical connections are on the bulb and not in the holder, when the bulb is removed, there are no potentially live connections to touch even for the smallest of fingers.
