Ceiling pendant

Jan 30, 2020 Last reply: 6 years ago 14 Replies

Any ideas for a suitable permanamt fitting to attach to the ceiling that allows a pendant to easily plug into it - without needing to use chsock blocks and make new screwholes in the ceiling whing the titting is changed. Obviously the plug on the light fitting would need to be swopped over.


Hager Klik ceiling rose?

Or these, which seem to do a similar job but are much more expensive:

An alternative to Hager Klick is Lewden Maestro.

I may have misunderstood what you want, but wouldn't something like these be the simplest solution?

Just fit one onto the flex of your pendant fitting, and plug into the existing light socket in place of the bulb.

There are ceiling roses designed for this job.

Sorry - disnt want a "rose" as such - more of a fitting for multi lamp luminaires that screw onto the ceiling or onto a bracket on the ceiling. Normally use chock blocks but varifocals make that a chore

Is it something like these that you are looking for?

You need to wire the socket to the wiring in the ceiling but the plug can be wired to the light fitting at ground level then simply lifted and plugged together.

So what you'd like is some form of plug and socket between house wiring and luminaire? That will fit into the housing at the top of the luminaire? Good luck finding one which is easy to connect to the house wiring. ;-)

Ideal just the sort of thing I wanted - 20amps sounds a bit clunky.

At least not fitting it whilst holding a luminaire!

The Lewden Maestro ones will take a suitable sized conduit or rod, as well as flex.

Be warned, they are pretty large. I bought 4 as an emergency purchase to connect 12V LED lights to as a PSU for a camping trip - only thing I could get hold of immediately. I was surprised when I got them and saw the size.

Yes - possibly industrial, There really should be a 6amp version made.
