A mogul porcelain lamp holder is a type of electrical socket used to hold light bulbs with a large base, typically found in high wattage fixtures such as streetlights or industrial lighting.

The E39 6kv pulse rated HID mogul lamp base is used in open rated HID lighting fixtures.
The lamps most commonly used in the hobby are single-ended, with a screw-type mounting base. The size of the base and the threads is also described by a code, although names are more commonly used. For example, Base – E39 is commonly called a mogul porcelain light bulb socket.

European lamps also have a mogul base, but it is slightly different from the E-39 and is called E40. The differences are small enough that the E40 base lamps will work fine in the typical E39 mogul base used in the U.S. Double-ended 150-watt lamps use the RSC (RX7s) base, while the 250-watt double-ended lamps use the Fc2 base.
