Abstract: An improved exterior post top mounted lighting fixture with a housing formed by four extruded right-angled aluminum members interlocked together, the housing providing means for aligning an electrical assembly and the components thereof in a predetermined position.

Abstract: An improved luminar having an adjustable lamp socket is disclosed. The adjustable socket comprises a generally cylindrical shaped socket shield which is fixed to the ballast housing of the luminar and is positioned around the lamp socket with the socket shield having formed therein a bracket channel and a guide channel. A generally U-shaped bracket is fixedly attached to the socket and has identification means formed thereon designating the relative position of the socket within the socket shield. The bracket also has formed thereon at least one protuberance for positioning in the guide channel means formed on the socket shield. The generally U-shaped bracket is positioned within the bracket channel means and is designed for movement within the channel in the desired position of the lamp in the reflector of the luminar. Locking means are provided for locking the U-shaped bracket within the socket shield at the desired pre-determined position.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for cable support and guidance for use on a high elevation outdoor lighting system in which luminaires, for servicing and inspection, are lowered from an operating position at the top of a pole to a position at the base of the pole. A series of rollers are mounted at the pole top to support and guide the passage of a luminaire, elastomer-jacketed power cable which, during raising and lowering of the luminaires, moves in a path that extends vertically through the interior of the pole, over the roller arrangement and vertically to the luminaires on the exterior of the pole.
