Oh I see. Are they rotated? I assumed there was a socket on top that the bulb I can see from the ground plugs into.
yes they are rotated to point them north. that's a procedural step of installing them
of course there's a socket. it contains a line (energized) terminal, a neutral terminal, and a control terminal.
what's your point?
The article is about the sockets. You said the only opening in the housing points north, so you can see why I thought you were talking about the lamp housing and not the photocell housing.
that makes no sense. this is about the nema socket
the lamp is not plugged into the nema socket. the article specifically says that the photocell is what's connected to the nema socket
