Leviton 8827-CW1 Pull Chain Lamp Holder 660W 250V Medium Base

Product Description

The LEVITON 8827-CW1 is a medium-base pull chain lamp holder rated for 660 watts and 250 volts AC. It is designed for incandescent lamp applications and provides a simple, reliable socket solution where switched control is needed at the fixture itself. The pull chain mechanism allows the lamp to be turned on and off without a wall switch, making it a practical choice for utility spaces, storage rooms, closets, and similar installations. The unit is screw mounted for secure attachment to junction boxes or fixture housings. It ships in a white housing finish and is built to meet CSA and UL listing requirements.

This lamp holder is suited for residential and light commercial applications where a medium-base incandescent socket with integral switching is required. Typical installations include utility room ceiling fixtures, garage lighting, basement drop-light setups, and service areas where a local pull chain is preferred over a remote wall switch. Electricians and maintenance professionals routinely specify this style of holder for straightforward retrofit and new-construction lighting circuits.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes. Always shut off circuit power at the breaker panel and verify the circuit is de-energized with a non-contact voltage tester before beginning work. Secure the holder firmly using the screw mount points and ensure all wire connections are properly terminated and insulated. Do not exceed the 660-watt or 250-volt ratings when selecting a replacement lamp.
