Default What happens if you put 75 watt bulb in a 60 watt fixture

Does someone with more acumen than I have insight into where
in that document it spells out the safety factor inherent in
the standard?


You've been trying for a couple days now to get somebody to tell you it's OK to put a 75W bulb
in a fixture labelled 60W max. You obviously refuse to accept the idea that the rating is there
for a reason, and you obviously intend on doing what you want to do, regardless of the UL
listing, regardless of all the advice you have received to the contrary -- so why don't you just
shut up and go do it?
