The holder consists of a threaded cap that connects to the lamp base (e.g., B22 or E27) and a strain-relief mechanism for the flexible pendant wire. Electrical power is transmitted from the ceiling rose through the flexible conductor, allowing the fixture to hang vertically under gravity while maintaining a secure electrical contact with the light source.
Pendant holders are used for low-height lighting requirements.
The flexible cord is usually a twin-core circular PVC-insulated cable.
Used extensively in domestic, office, and commercial lighting installations.
