Abstract

An electric lamp may be formed with a lamp bulb, with lead wires leading out from the lamp bulb and with a base which incorporates a connection region made of electrically insulating material and provided with electrical connections. The connection region includes a cavity into which at least one lead wire of the electric lamp projects, and at least one electric connection of the base is formed by a contact lug which projects into the cavity in an electrically conducting manner with a lead wire of the lamp. A shaped part consisting of heat-resistant, elastic material is located in the cavity of the connection region. The shaped part has one or more passages for each lead wire of the electric lamp. The shaped part sits on a contact lug and abuts the wall delimiting the cavity in a press fit, and the lead wires pass through the shaped part.
