Il existe de très nombreux modèles de culots. Pour les lampes d'éclairage général, il y a deux types en usage : le culot à baïonnette, à deux ergots, et le culot à vis, dit Edison. Ce dernier assure de meilleurs contacts électriques avec la douille que le culot à baïonnette, mais associé à certains modèles de douilles, il peut être dangereux pour les utilisateurs si l'on ne prend pas soin de relier au neutre le pöle de la douille constitué par la vis. 1, record 2, French, - culot%20%C3%A0%20vis%20Edison
