Abstract

An attachment assembly for each end of an ultraviolet light lamp positioned in a quartz sleeve protruding through a mounting nipple on opposite ends of an apparatus such as a water treatment unit. A compression nut is threadly mounted on each of the mounting nipples and has an internal cylindrical bore with an O-ring for receiving and positioning the end of the quartz sleeve. An elastic electrical socket assembly is operably connected to each end of the ultraviolet light lamp. A retainer is detachably mounted on the compression nut and has means for retaining the electrical socket assembly in position. A compression spring is provided in one of the retainers to resiliently urge the electrical socket assemblies into engagement with the ends of the lamp continuously and securely.
