A socket and plug are used to connect an electrical fixture with electrical power supply wiring, and for mounting the fixture on a support. The socket has internal cavities with electrically conductive contact terminals which establish an electrical connection between the electrical power supply wiring and the socket. A plug is rigidly fixed to a fixture, and is inserted into the socket. The plug has male connectors electrically connected to the fixture and engageable with the conductive terminals within the socket. A releasable latch is carried on the combination of the plug and the socket for releasably mounting the fixture on the support.
