Abstract: A housing for an underwater lighting fixture includes a wet niche formed from plastic and provided with three alternative grounding pathways. A conductor strap is attached to the niche by a threaded lug which extends through the strap and an adjacent wall of the niche to permit an internal ground wire and an external ground wire to be connected to the strap. As a further grounding assurance, the lighting fixture is grounded through a bracket which attaches to the conductor strap. The bracket also serves as a current collector to receive electrical charge from the surrounding water.

The grounding strap is attached to the niche by a threaded lug which extends through the strap and an adjacent wall of the niche to permit an internal ground wire and an external ground wire to be connected to the strap. As a further grounding assurance, the lighting fixture may be grounded through the grounding strap, which mechanically and electrically attaches the lighting fixture to the niche.

Abstract: A collision avoidance light for mounting at the rear window of an automobile includes a housing, a socket assembly, a lens and an anti-glare shield. The housing defines an open face. The socket assembly includes a socket for mounting a light bulb. The socket assembly is mounted on the housing. The lens is detachably mounted to the housing in juxtaposition with the open face. The anti-glare shield is mounted on the housing and at least partially surrounds the lens. The shield is readily adaptible to conform to the slope of the rear window.
