Abstract
The luminaire has a base wall (1) bearing contact elements (2, 3). These elements are bent from metal sheet to have a base (20) and opposite arms (2, 3) extending therefrom each having a contact portion (23, 24) to contact a lamp terminal (43). The arms (2, 3) cross one another between the contact portions (23, 24) and the base (20). The construction allows for a low height and a free choice of sheet material.
