From your photos, this is the very common 2-light “torchiere floor lamp with reading light” (also called a mother-daughter floor lamp). ✅ What kind of lamp it is •Type: Torchiere floor lamp + adjustable gooseneck reading lamp •Main/top light: Up-facing bowl shade (room/ambient light) •Side light: Small reading light on a flexible arm (task light) •Power: Plug-in lamp (standard 120V in Canada/USA) •Material: Metal pole, frosted glass shades ✅ Typical bulb/socket types (what the technician will check) •Top (main) socket: usually E26 medium base (standard screw bulb in Canada) •Reading light socket: often E12 candelabra base (smaller screw bulb) (some models can be E14, but in Canada E12 is most common) 🔧 What looks “broken” in your pictures The reading-light head looks like it has a damaged / loose socket assembly (the socket area is exposed and not seated properly). The electrician will likely: •re-seat the socket, or •replace the reading light socket/head, and check wiring connections. This is a 2-in-1 torchiere floor lamp (mother-daughter lamp): top torchiere bowl light + adjustable reading light. The reading-light socket/head is broken/loose and needs repair or socket replacement. Top bulb is likely E26; reading bulb is likely E12.” Perfect 👍 thanks for confirming. ✅ Final, clear diagnosis (based on your photos + confirmation) •Top/main torchiere light: ✅ Working fine •Side reading light: ❌ Broken / not working 🔧 What exactly needs to be fixed The problem is NOT the whole lamp. Only the reading light assembly needs repair. Most likely issues (in order of probability): 1.Damaged reading-light socket (E12 candelabra base) 2.Loose or broken internal wires inside the reading-light head 3.Heat damage to the socket holder (very common with older bulbs) 🛠 What the electrician will do •Open the reading light head •Test continuity and wiring •Replace the E12 socket (cheap, standard part) •Secure wiring properly •Reinstall the glass shade safely ⏱ This is usually a 15–30 minute fix, not a full replacement job. 📝 Exact wording you can send to the technician “The lamp is a torchiere floor lamp with a side reading light. The top light works, but the reading light is broken. The reading-light socket (likely E12 candelabra) appears damaged or loose and needs repair or replacement.” 💡 Extra tip (important) Ask them to install: •LED bulb only in the reading light (4–6W LED) This prevents future heat damage. If you want, I can also: •Tell you the exact replacement socket name •Or help you decide repair vs replace cost-wise 🔧 Part That Needs to Be Replaced Reading Light Socket (E12 Candelabra Base Socket) ⸻ 📌 Full professional name (best to say) E12 candelabra-base lamp socket for floor lamp reading light ⸻ 🔍 Why this part From your photos: •The reading-light head is open •The socket housing is exposed •Wiring and terminals are visible •The top torchiere light works, so power is fine This means the socket itself (or its internal contacts) is damaged or worn out. ⸻ 🧰 Optional parts the electrician may also replace (if needed) Depending on condition: •Lamp socket shell / insulating sleeve •Socket retaining ring •Reading light head assembly (only if the metal cup is damaged) But in most cases, only the E12 socket is replaced. ⸻ 🛒 What to ask for at Home Depot / RONA (Canada) Say: “I need an E12 candelabra lamp socket replacement for a floor lamp reading light.” They usually cost $5–$10 CAD. ⸻ ⚡ Important safety note Tell the electrician: •Install LED bulb only (4–6W) •Avoid halogen or incandescent (causes heat damage) ⸻ ✅ One-line summary (short & perfect) Part to replace: E12 candelabra reading-light socket. If you want, I can show you: •A picture of the exact socket •Or confirm if yours is E12 or E14 from another angle
