vivienz Posted September 27, 2019 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?
vivienz Posted September 27, 2019 Author 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!
Nick1c Posted June 6, 2020 Posted June 6, 2020 @vivienz what did you go for in the end? We are at the point of needing to choose some. Thanks.
Oz07 Posted June 6, 2020 Posted June 6, 2020 I think mine are ip65 Just went for the low profile leds

vivienz Posted June 6, 2020 Author 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.
Nick1c Posted June 6, 2020 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.
