In some instances, it may be necessary to install a low profile socket set. This could be when there is a low ceiling, low clearance, or small space.
A low profile socket set is perfect for low clearance, low ceiling heights, or anywhere the weight of the fixture is in question.
Many low profile lights are suitable for outdoor use in non-hazardous locations. These durable lights can withstand even most severe weather conditions such as excessive moisture, dirt, and dust. They can hold up to temps as low as -18 degrees without any degradation in light output or performance.
These durable lights are not only for homes but can also be installed in refineries, paper mills, chemical plants, inspection facilities, power plants and dozens of other industrial locations.
Low profile lights are energy efficient and compact. The long-lasting fluorescent bulbs make replacing the lamps less expensive. Many of the units also have an “instant on” feature, so there is no waiting for the light to build-up to maximum brightness.
The low profile lights also come in a variety of lamp wattages. Their compact, light-weight design makes them easy to install and maintain.
Before replacing the socket use proper safety. Ensure the power is cut off to the light at the circuit breaker. After shutting off the power, use a voltage meter to check that there is no power to the unit.
Low profile socket sets are also available in stylish colors to match the decor of the room. Not everyone needs this option, but it is nice to have when needed.
The fluorescent lamps of today are very popular, and therefore they have lots of different usages and are available in different shapes and sizes. Fluorescent lamps are used in kitchens, basements or hallways and also in schools and businesses.
