NEW UL LISTED SOCKET
WITH A GROUND WIRE
This light was designed to be user friendly, heavy-duty, beautiful and easily cleaned. The fitter that houses the socket is a heavy cast-iron two-piece design. All that originally came at a much higher price than much more common barn and industrial lights, meaning fewer were sold and very few remain and higher cost for those that do. However, a couple of hundred found me and have been carefully and meticulously restored for use with today's safety standards and bulbs in mind. Perfect for restaurants, homes, barns and garages.
This is a shallow shade, not as deep as a standard dome. It lets a little more light escape out the sides of the shade. Day-one shine with a couple of fairly large chips as shown. Totally restored electrical with new UL Listed sockets, well grounded, PLUS a machined socket extension, basically, better than original. Perfect for restaurants, taverns barns etc. If you'd some patina along with an abundance of safety, these are for you. This is rated in "B" or "C" condition.
In order to allow the light to function as designed, I've added a 2 inch extension to the cast-iron socket fitter. This allows the bulb to extend an additional 2 inch into the sweet-spot of the shade for better efficiency and illumination. Today's bulbs are far shorter than they were when this light was manufactured. The extension is also perfect for the use of LED bulbs. (Don't let your bulbs get lost in the neck). And last but not least, the machined extension is designed to provide a good, solid ground, my commercial and safety conscious buyers LOVE this option....pass your inspections!!
The original down-rod is 6" long. Other rod lengths available for the asking are 3" and 12" but may be newer.
The diameter of the shade is 18 inches. From the bottom of the shade to the point that the down-rod screws in is almost 12". The complete light is 17" tall.
The original swivel hanger allows the lights to hang plumb, (vertical) even if your ceiling is not level, (horizontal) and also allows the lights to resist damage from accidental, (or purposeful), bumps and bruises.
Please feel free to ask questions prior to bidding.
I'm a very fast and careful shipper. These lights will be packed very well.
