Jul 26, 2023 at 12:15 comment added keshlam This design confuses me slightly. Normally the wires do not connect inside the socket area, and I don't see contacts outside the ceramic. I presume one is supposed to dismount the socket itself from the ceramic by removing the two recessed screws and there will be contact points on its back; that would resemble the socket housings I'm used to...

Jul 26, 2023 at 11:32 comment added crip659 @DoxyLover My eyes see black, brown, and a light yellow. I do not think old or new UK wire colours used black and brown together. They used one or the other with different colours.
