Choosing a Globe

Before purchasing a globe for the Econo Bulkhead 60/100W, check the lamp holder and maximum permitted wattage shown on the fitting.

Where compatible, an LED globe can provide an energy-efficient alternative to older incandescent lamp technology while producing useful general illumination.

When selecting an LED globe, consider:

• Required brightness
• Colour temperature
• Globe dimensions
• Lamp holder
• Fitting enclosure
• Manufacturer compatibility

Never exceed the maximum lamp rating specified for the fitting.

Indoor and Outdoor Use

Do not assume that a bulkhead fitting is automatically suitable for outdoor installation.

The IP rating determines the fitting’s level of protection against solids and moisture. If the Econo Bulkhead will be installed outdoors, in a bathroom or in another area exposed to moisture, check its IP rating first.

Only install it in locations permitted by the manufacturer’s specifications.

Installation

Fixed electrical lighting should be installed according to the manufacturer’s instructions and applicable electrical requirements.

Before installation:

• Isolate the electrical supply.
• Confirm the rated voltage.
• Check the mounting surface.
• Confirm the lamp type and wattage.
• Check the IP rating where relevant.
• Secure the fitting correctly.
• Ensure electrical connections are properly enclosed.
• Test the fitting after installation.

A suitably qualified electrician should carry out fixed electrical work where required.

Care and Maintenance

Switch off and isolate the electrical supply before cleaning, replacing a globe or carrying out maintenance.

Allow the lamp and fitting to cool before touching them. Clean accessible surfaces with a suitable soft cloth and avoid harsh abrasive products that could damage the fitting.

Periodically inspect for loose components, cracked covers, damaged wiring or signs of moisture ingress.
