vivienz Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 The gables over our bedroom balconies have downlights set into the soffits. Would an IP44 rating be sufficient for this or do I need IP65? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vivienz Posted September 27, 2019 Author Share Posted September 27, 2019 I've got the answer! For any other electrical numpties like me, an IP44 is fine. That would explain why the soffit lights I'm looking at are IP44 rated. Duh! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vivienz Posted June 6, 2020 Author Share Posted June 6, 2020 I will need to check back and let you know. They haven't been fitted yet - winter storms, covid and other impediments put a siginificant delay on things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick1c Posted June 6, 2020 Share Posted June 6, 2020 Thanks @Oz07 they are for internal use only according to the spec sheet. The weather here can be brutal so only plastic/resin/316 stainless is any use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
