- U.L. Listed for table & floor lamps were cord is exposed.
- Stripped, copper-tipped ends simplify wrapping wire around socket screws.

SPT refers to the thickness of the plastic insulation on lamp wire:
- This lamp cord set is rated SPT-2. It has a thicker plastic insulation covering than traditional SPT-1. The thicker plastic provides more protection and resistant to abrasion. It is designed for table & floor lamps. Slipping SPT-2 wire through 3/8″ – 1/8 IP lamp pipe can be tight.
