Teds department receives partially completed incoming lamp assemblies from an upstream department that has already installed the base and glass for each lamp. Its then the job of Teds department to just insert, connect, and test all of the electrical components before transferring out the units, which then move directly to Vikrams department where the lava fluid will be injected and sealed into each lamp before packaging and shipment.
