TBC 220BP B22 Bakelite Battern Lamp holder

The TBC 220BP Batten Lampholder is a compact, surface-mounted B22 lampholder engineered for dependable performance in everyday general lighting applications. Forming part of the TBC lamp holder product line, it provides a secure and electrically insulated fitting for standard B22 bayonet-cap lamps in a wide range of indoor environments.

Constructed from high-quality bakelite, the 220BP delivers robust electrical insulation and mechanical durability suited to the demands of continuous lighting service. Its straightforward two-hole surface mounting design ensures quick and convenient installation, minimising labour time on site.

Targeted at electrical contractors, wholesalers, and facility managers serving residential, commercial, and light industrial markets, the TBC 220BP offers a reliable, cost-effective solution for standard indoor lighting circuits.

Key Features

  • B22 Bayonet-Cap Compatibility: Designed to accept standard B22 bayonet-cap lamps, ensuring broad lamp compatibility for general lighting use.
  • 5A / 250V AC Rating: Rated at 5A and 250V AC with a maximum lamp power of 60W, suitable for typical indoor lighting circuits.
  • Bakelite Construction: High-grade bakelite body provides excellent electrical insulation, heat resistance, and long-term mechanical durability.
  • IP20 Protection: Rated IP20, appropriate for indoor installations where protection against solid objects is required but water ingress protection is not necessary.
  • Surface Mounting Design: Two mounting holes allow secure and straightforward installation directly onto walls, ceilings, or suitable mounting surfaces.
  • Compact and Space-Efficient: Minimal footprint makes the 220BP suitable for confined spaces such as corridors, storerooms, and utility areas.
  • White Finish: Clean white colour integrates neatly with standard interior décor and electrical fittings.
  • Simple Terminal Connections: Clearly arranged conductor terminals support fast, reliable wiring during installation.

The TBC 220BP is a batten-type lampholder designed to provide a secure, insulated mounting point for B22 bayonet-cap lamps in general indoor lighting installations. Its bakelite body is selected for its well-established properties as an electrical insulator, offering resistance to heat generated during normal lamp operation and maintaining structural integrity over extended service life.

The surface-mounting configuration, facilitated by two pre-formed mounting holes, allows the lampholder to be fixed directly to ceilings, walls, or conduit boxes without the need for specialised tools or additional hardware. This simplicity of installation reduces on-site labour time and supports efficient project completion for both new installations and replacement work.

With a rated current of 5A, a rated voltage of 250V AC, and a maximum lamp power of 60W, the TBC 220BP is dimensioned for standard residential and commercial lighting circuits. Its IP20 rating confirms suitability for dry indoor environments, making it a practical and dependable choice across a broad range of general lighting applications.

The TBC 220BP operates as a passive electrical fitting, providing a mechanically secure and electrically insulated interface between the fixed wiring installation and the B22 bayonet-cap lamp. The bakelite housing serves as the primary insulating medium, separating live conductors from accessible surfaces and maintaining dielectric integrity under the thermal and electrical stresses of continuous operation at up to 5A and 250V AC.

Conductor terminations within the lampholder are designed to accept and retain supply conductors securely, ensuring low-resistance electrical contact throughout the service life of the fitting. The bayonet-cap lamp socket mechanism provides positive lamp retention, preventing unintended lamp displacement during normal use. The assembly is rated to a maximum lamp power of 60W, consistent with its thermal design limits.

  • Residential Lighting: Suitable for bedroom, living room, hallway, and general domestic lighting circuits using B22 lamps.
  • Commercial Premises: Appropriate for offices, retail shops, and showrooms requiring straightforward, cost-effective lamp fittings.
  • Corridors and Stairwells: Compact batten design is well suited to narrow or confined indoor passage lighting installations.
  • Storerooms and Utility Areas: Provides reliable lighting support in non-hazardous indoor storage and utility spaces.
  • Light Industrial Facilities: Applicable in dry indoor areas of workshops or light manufacturing environments where IP20 protection is adequate.
  • Hospitality and Accommodation: Used in hotel back-of-house areas, service corridors, and utility rooms requiring simple, maintainable lamp fittings.
  • Educational and Institutional Buildings: Suitable for classrooms, administrative offices, and ancillary spaces in schools and public buildings.
