I am about to buy 6 sockets E27 but have no idea how to connect 220v to all 6 sockets together the safe and right way ..some pics would really help.

I am not an electrician so dont want to burn down the house..or damage screw in LEDs..

any help would be appreciated pictures would be great help!
I am sure a few folks done that already..

yep these are 220v around here

dont mean those dyi leds that run on much lover wattage..just these screw-in LED bulbs..

btw found another thread on this:
https://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=208809&page=3

I will follow that one when connecting that 220v wire..
btw I want be able to use just 3 bulbs out of 6 at a time hope that wont be a problem when only 3 of 6 light will be connected anyone can confirm this will work or do I have to try myself?

found this usefull video

cheapest is a $25 12 slot power strip and the $1.50 outlet-to-socket adapters. checkout the brightstik thread on RIU
