It is rated up to 4.5 A and comes with a 140 mm PTFE (Teflon) cable using 0.75 mm² conductors. Continuous temperature rating is 300 °C for the lampholder and 180 °C for the cable insulation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is the sort of spare part you fit when a socket inside a low-voltage halogen downlight or task light has been heat-stressed over time. The body is 17 mm in diameter and mounts with two 3.3 mm fixing holes on an 11.5 mm center-to-center pattern, which helps when you are matching an existing lamp carrier in a compact fixture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eKey features\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e24 V rating with a maximum current of 4.5 A for low-voltage halogen lighting circuits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits common capsule lamp bases: G4, G5.3, GX5.3, G6.35, and GY6.35\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e140 mm PTFE (Teflon) leads with 0.75 mm² conductors for straightforward splicing inside fixtures\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eContinuous temperature ratings: lampholder 300 °C; cable insulation 180 °C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e17 mm body diameter for compact housings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMounting pattern: 3.3 mm fixing holes with 11.5 mm center-to-center spacing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhite body\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eCompatibility and fit\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eConfirm your fixture uses one of the supported lamp bases and has room for a 17 mm diameter holder plus the two mounting screws on an 11.5 mm center-to-center pattern.

Size circuit protection for the lamp load; at 24 V and 4.5 A, the circuit limit is 108 W.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eUse on board\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a practical spare for keeping 24 V halogen downlights, reading lights, and utility lights running on older cruisers and workboats. It also suits refits where the original socket has become brittle or the contacts no longer grip the lamp pins firmly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eMaintenance and checks\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eDuring routine checks, look for discoloration on the holder, looseness at the lamp pins, or insulation that has hardened near the hot zone. Replacing a tired lampholder helps avoid intermittent lighting and excess heat at the contact points.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vimar","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52269498204341,"sku":"QBP870232","price":6.84,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0977\/8171\/1029\/files\/1300266_qbp870232.webp?v=1771544288","url":"https:\/\/www.qualityboatparts.com\/products\/qbp870232","provider":"Quality Boat Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
