Abstract

See full text

A lamp with a light-emitting unit, at least two separate contact modules and an electrical connection between the light-emitting unit and the contact modules, wherein each contact module has at least one electrical contact for connecting to a corresponding lampholder, is presented and described. So that other lamps can be operated safely as gas-discharge lamps in lampholders provided for them, it is envisaged that at least one protective device for prevention of electric shock is provided on at least one of the electrical contacts in a partially assembled state of the lamp in a corresponding lampholder, and that the protective device is designed to assume a deactivated position in the assembled state of the lamp and an activated position in the dismantled state of the lamp.
