The different attacks

The different attacks

Without prior knowledge, you may not give too much importance to the need to know the attacks of different lamps. Certainly, it is not something that keeps you up at night, but you would save money, time and effort simply by making sure before choosing the right lamp for the right attack!

What are the most common attacks

Well, the E27 is the standard screw fitting. E stands for Edison, the inventor of the incandescent filament lamp, and 27 are the millimeters in diameter of the screw. But you don't need to remember all this. What you need to know is if you have an E27 socket! Other screw connections are E14 (14 mm in diameter) and E40 (40 mm in diameter). The different lamp holders often correspond to a different type of lamp. Here are some examples:

The GU10 attachment is widely used in homes, especially for lighting with spotlights in kitchens and living rooms. If you find them it is more than likely that they are lamps with a GU10 socket, the ones that you have to insert by pressing lightly and turning to attach to the lamp holder. The GU10 attack has similar uses to GU5.3. Although they are very similar in shape and use, you cannot replace a GU10 lamp with a GU5.3 as they are incompatible! Here is a list of the two types:

Is it always that simple

Certainly not. For example, G6.35 and GY6.35 are so similar and easily confused. Although there are only small differences between them, it will be these small differences that will leave you in the dark. Luckily for you, our experts are always ready to give you a hand. Besides being able to consult the table below, you can always call or send an email for free advice.

So how can I know if the lamp I want to buy is the correct one for my lamp holder

If the images do not help you see similarities or differences, and in some cases do not help, then there are a couple of easy tricks to avoid finding yourself completing our return procedure after you have already made the purchase. If you still hold it, check the lamp box you're using. You will find the attack code clearly written. If instead, as is probable, you have not kept the box, you can always send us an image of the lamp with the dimensions of the attack info@lampadadiretta.it and you will receive an answer in less than 24h!

Would you like a certain type of lamp but your lamp holder does not match what you are looking for

Don't worry, we're trying to make the impossible possible! We have a whole range of adapters available for you. One end of the adapter slips into the lamp holder, in the other, the lamp is inserted. Adapters allow you to convert E27 to B22, E14 to GU10, E14 to E27 and so on. Click on the image to discover all the possibilities.
