A moulded socket for electric lamp bulbs comprising a hollow cylindrical body and an open end. An electrical cable is moulded within a base formed integrally with the cylindrical body. A center metal contact is partly moulded within the base and held at the center of the socket over the base. A U-shape metal side contact having two opposed sides and a connecting base is also partly moulded within the cylindrical body and adapted to receive and retain a lamp bulb screw base between the opposed sides. Points are formed with the contacts to penetrate the insulation on the electrical cable to make electrical connection with a respective wire. The base of the socket is provided with ventilating holes and guide ribs are formed in the inner surface of the cylindrical body to guide a screw base in the socket and to provide sufficient ventilation thereabout. A holding clip is also moulded, at one end thereof, within the socket base.
