It is proposed an electric lamp (10), which serves in particular as a lamp (10) for illuminating the interior (13) of motor vehicles. The lamp (10) is at least electrically connected to a sensor which detects the opening of at least one door (12) to the interior (13) of the motor vehicle without a switch. After the detection of the door opening, a signal is subsequently supplied to a switching device, which switches on the electric lamp (10) for a predetermined, optionally preselectable, time interval.
