Can this lamp be installed in the ground, and is an adapter required to do so.

I poured a 12" pad with quickcrete from Home depot, installed the bolts that came with the lamp post. Once it was dry you can bolt down the base

Really need to be bolted to concrete "pad". But I guess if you "buried the base in the ground, that would work. No adapter necessary.

My gardner put down a small amount of cement and then installed, the lamp is lovely and not going anywhere :)

This lamp is called a pin-in. Your will receive a mounting plate and screws to attached this to your surface. It does have a plug and cord.

Yes. There is a center plastic square that inserts into the lamp, but the two prongs on the side also slide into holes made juist for them. Works great for me and so much cheaper than buying it at local stores! Annette G

Yes, but you should use a dome or clamp type lamp. The bulb should be mounted either vertically, facing down or horizontally.

This lamp is designed to be permanently wired into a ceiling fixture. It doesn't necessarily require an electrician. But, straight out of the box, there is no way to plug it into a wall outlet.

Good Luck with That! It's just a box... it's suppose to go into the electrical box but it really doesn't fit in the normal size boxes. I had to tie wrap mine to the lamp externally. There is no screw holes for mounting to anything!

Need a transformer feeding a power cord to which the lamps attach where you want them.

I personally wouldn't recommend it since it is not made to be a ceiling light, it is a plug in lamp.

Yes. It should be installed in the ground with only the breather and outlet with union above the ground.

This lamp does not have an all weather enclosure, but if you place it in a protected area, it should be fine outdoors.You will need the proper socket for it to work.

no i cannot be plugged into a standard light bulb socket. it needs to be plugged into a 4 prong ballast in order to work. some floor lamps uses these.

You will have to attach a cord with a plug on it to the wires on the back of the lamp assembly. Ideally, it should be wall mounted and wired to a circuit with a switch.

The cord is comes out of the bottom if you want. Determined by how you attach the two wires to the sides of the socket. Yes any lamp that you use should have an existing hole. Either on side or the bottom. I just used the existing holes to rewire my lamp.

Yes. It has a 3 pronged for the ground. You would have to have a 3 pronged outlet to plug it into.

thank you very much for asking.The base of the lamp does the job, the only problem I had was the AC Adapter because it did not workI had to buy another ... everything else worked well

This is a STANDARD outside lamp .. therefore, it connects directly to a wall mounted electrical box. It does not plug in - it is hardwired.

No, it plugs into a special element; you would have to buy an adapter for a regular lamp
