Leviton 49875 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Leviton 49875 lampholder mount to a standard outlet box?
Yes. The Leviton 49875 keyless lampholder uses a 1-piece outlet box design, so it mounts directly to a standard outlet box rather than needing a separate canopy or fixture pan. That is what makes it quick to install on utility and back-of-house openings where the box is already in the ceiling or wall.
2) Does this Leviton lampholder have a pull chain or switch on it?
No. It is a keyless lampholder, meaning there is no integral key, pull chain, or switch. Power has to be controlled upstream by a wall switch, occupancy sensor, or breaker. If the room needs local on/off at the fixture, specify a pull-chain or keyed lampholder instead.
3) Is the Leviton 49875 lampholder rated for 250 volt circuits?
The voltage rating is 250V, so it covers standard 120V branch lighting circuits with margin and is acceptable on 208/240V control and service-area circuits where a 250V rated device is called for.
4) What does single-circuit mean on the Leviton 49875 lampholder?
Single-circuit means the lampholder is fed by one hot and one neutral and operates one lamp on one switch leg. There is no second circuit or separate switched tap, so you cannot split it between two switch legs or run a switched outlet off it.
5) Is a keyless lampholder like the Leviton 49875 the right choice for a closet or storage room?
It is a common choice for closets, storage, basements, attics, garages, workshops, and mechanical or electrical rooms, plus commercial back-of-house and service areas. Because it is keyless, control comes from a wall switch outside the space, which is usually what a closet or utility room wants anyway. For a space with no switch leg, pick a lampholder with an integral pull chain instead.
6) What is the Leviton part number to order for this keyless medium base lampholder?
Order Leviton 49875. That is the manufacturer part number and the only model on it, so there are no finish or configuration suffixes to specify.
7) Can I use an LED bulb in the Leviton 49875 incandescent lampholder?
The lampholder is specified for incandescent service with a medium base socket. Any lamp you put in it has to be a medium base type and within the 250V rating of the device.
8) What color is the Leviton 49875 lampholder?
White. For property managers standardizing closets, basements, and mechanical rooms across a building, the white body keeps replacements matching what is already up without repainting or mixing finishes.
