Hey guys so i got this hanging lamp socket thinking it would wire in the same as my fixed sockets but only noticed after i got it that it only has 2 ports to insert wire. Anyone know how or what the hell im meant to do?

pictures? Im guessing it is probably just a fixture that is not earthed, hence only 2 wires and not 3? Is it made out of plastic?
But then again that also depends on you country of residence ;)

Now I see what you mean.
You could just wire it like the other fixtures provided you are using the same wattage bulb.

It is an un-earthed fixture.
You only need two wires for electron flow anyway.

Always be careful with wiring.
Many good pages on google for basic wiring.
Pretty easy, an understanding of wattage and some common sense.

I was about 13 when I learned to test engines for spark by holding on to the wire and hand against the block.

Once my knee had 15k volts applied. My leg was under a table and I couldnt move.
Finally broke loose and my leg was sorta cooked.
It felt like an extreme charlie horse the following week.
