The EMF LR97LC (LH0365) is a specialized electrical component primarily designed as a water-resistant lampholder or "tombstone" socket. Specifically engineered for T8 or T12 linear fluorescent and LED tubular lamps, it is a common fixture comonent in commercial refrigeration and display cases. Its "LC" designation indicates a locking clip feature, ensuring the lamp remains securely seated even in high-vibration environments.
What sets this socket apart is its moisture-resistant molding. It is frequently utilized in grocery store display cases equipped with misting systems, where standard sockets would fail due to corrosion or short-circuiting. The unit isnon-shunted, making it highly compatible with modern LED retrofit projects where the power is fed directly to the lamp pins. With a heavy-duty rating of up to 660W and 600V, it provides a robust, snap-in solution for both repair and custom DIY lighting builds.
