  • Bulk & OEM supply – cost-effective pricing for luminaire manufacturers, electrical contractors, and distributors
  • RoHS & CE compliant – meets EU and international lighting component standards

Buying Guide – Selecting the Right Lamp Holder

  • Pin count – 2G7 for 2-pin PLS lamps; 2GX7 for 4-pin PLS lamps (4-pin lamps require an electronic ballast)
  • Wattage compatibility – confirm the lamp wattage (5W–13W) matches the holder's rated current capacity
  • Mounting orientation – select horizontal for ceiling fixtures, vertical for wall-mount, or angled for directional downlights
  • Ballast type – 4-pin 2GX7 lamps require an external electronic or magnetic ballast; 2-pin 2G7 lamps may be self-ballasted
  • Wire connection – confirm lead wire gauge and length match your fixture's wiring harness requirements

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between 2G7 and 2GX7?

2G7 is a 2-pin base used with self-ballasted or magnetically ballasted PLS lamps. 2GX7 is a 4-pin base designed for use with external electronic ballasts, which provide better efficiency and longer lamp life. Both share the same 7mm pin pitch but are not interchangeable.

Are these holders compatible with LED PLS retrofit lamps?

Yes. Many LED PLS retrofit lamps use the same 2G7 or 2GX7 base geometry. However, LED retrofits for 4-pin 2GX7 holders may require ballast bypass — confirm compatibility with your specific LED lamp supplier before installation.

What wire gauge is recommended for connection?

Standard connection wire is 0.5mm² to 1.0mm² (AWG 20–18) for most 2G7/2GX7 holders rated at 2A/250V. Confirm the holder's terminal specification before wiring.

Do you offer bulk pricing for OEM luminaire production?

Yes. Yoeruyo specializes in batch supply for luminaire manufacturers. Contact us for volume pricing, custom lead wire lengths, and packaging options for production line integration.

Are these holders CE and RoHS certified?

Yes. All Yoeruyo 2G7 and 2GX7 lamp holders are CE marked and RoHS compliant, meeting EU Low Voltage Directive and RoHS Directive requirements for lighting components.
