The positive/hot is smooth, neutral/negative - has ribs. U.L. Listed for table & floor lamps were cord is exposed. Stripped, copper-tipped ends simplify wrapping wire around socket screws.

SPT rating designates insulation thickness:

The thickness-rating provides varying degrees of resistance to heat and abrasion. Higher SPT rating numbers provide more resistance to abrasion and more protection from electric shock.

• SPT-1 has traditional, thinner plastic coating than the more recent SPT-2 lamp cord. This traditional size has been used for many years. It easily slips 1/8 IP lamp pipe. SPT-1 is often used on vintage lighting and lamps where threading common size lamp wire through pipe is difficult.

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.
