SPT refers to the amount of plastic insulation covering the lamp wire:
  • SPT-1 is the traditional thickness of 0.3" plastic insulation. It easily slips standard 3/8" lamp pipe.
  • SPT-2 is thicker with a 0.45" plastic insulation providing more protection and resistant to abrasion. Slipping SPT-2 wire through 3/8" - 1/8 IP lamp pipe can be tight.

Transparent Lamp Cord Sets are perfect for glass and silver colored lamps as the color blends with these materials. The slim SPT-1 width is like that used on lighting throughout much of the 20th century. This thin width ideal for tight spaces and many vintage lamps.

  • Standard insulated 18 gauge twin wire has 2 parallel copper wires. Wire with smooth plastic covering is positive/hot, wire with slight ribs in plastic is neutral/negative.
  • Approximate cord size: 3/16" width x 1/4" thickness
  • U.L. Listed for table & floor lamps were cord is exposed.
  • Stripped, copper-tipped ends simplify wrapping wire around socket screws.
  • Molded-on plugs are polarized and permanently attached to lamp cord.

Before making any changes to electrical fixtures and/or lamps:

  • Disconnect plug/wire from the electrical source.
  • Turning lamp off will not protect you from electric shock.
  • If you are unsure how to safely proceed contact a licensed electrician.
