Lamp (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lamp_(electrical_component)) on Wikipedia

A lamp is a replaceable component that produces light from electricity. Compact lamps are commonly called light bulbs; for example, the incandescent light bulb. Lamps usually have a base made of ceramic, metal, glass or plastic, which secures the lamp in the socket of a light fixture. The electrical connection to the socket may be made with a screw-thread base, two metal pins, two metal caps or a bayonet cap.
