Leviton 8756 4KV Pulse-Rated Mogul Base Lampholder
The Leviton 8756 is a 4KV pulse-rated Mogul (MOG) base lampholder engineered to withstand the high-voltage ignition pulses generated by high-intensity discharge (HID) lighting systems. Built to handle a 4KV pulse rating, this lampholder is designed for demanding applications where standard sockets would fail under repeated high-voltage strikes. The Mogul base configuration accommodates larger, high-wattage lamp bases commonly used in industrial, commercial, and outdoor HID fixtures. As part of Leviton's lampholder line, the 8756 is built to deliver dependable electrical contact and long-term performance in fixtures that rely on pulse-start or high-reactance HID ballasts requiring elevated open-circuit and pulse voltages.
Key Features
- Pulse Rating: Rated to withstand 4KV pulse voltages, making it suitable for pulse-start HID lamp circuits that generate high-voltage ignition spikes.
- Mogul Base (MOG) Configuration: Designed to accept Mogul-base lamps, the larger base size typically used in high-wattage HID and industrial lighting applications.
- High-Voltage Durability: Constructed to maintain reliable electrical contact and insulation integrity under repeated high-voltage pulse exposure, reducing premature socket failure.
- Leviton Build Quality: Manufactured by Leviton for consistent fit, form, and function in demanding lighting circuits.
