Zusammenfassung:A lighting fixture includes a socket that operatively receives a light bulb, lamp, or light source. A means for receiving electrical power is provided. A cylindrical capacitor is at least partially secured to the lighting fixture by at least one wire tie via a plurality of holes arranged in a mounting surface of the lighting fixture. Preferably, the cylindrical capacitor includes a rim. The mounting surface includes a retaining tab arranged thereon and a slot formed therein. The retaining tab cooperates with the slot to partially secure at least a portion of the capacitor rim. The secured rim portion further cooperates with the at least one wire tie to operatively secure the capacitor to the mounting surface of the lighting fixture.
