1. A lamp comprising:

  • a light source that requires high voltage for starting;

    a reflector body including an electrically conductive reflective surface oriented to receive light from the light source and direct light in a desired direction, the reflector body further including a preselected surface portion facing the light source devoid of the electrically conductive reflective surface;

    first and second lead assemblies operatively associated with the light source for supplying power thereto, the lead assemblies passing through an opening in the reflector body; and

    the lead assemblies spaced from the electrically conductive reflective surface portion of the reflector body by the preselected surface portion to preclude arcing between at least one of the lead assemblies and the electrically conductive reflective surface portion.
