IP65 Pendant Light
IP65 pendant light: lighting that withstands everything
Before choosing an outdoor pendant light, it is essential to understand what the IP65 protection rating means. This rating indicates the light fixture's resistance to dust and water, guaranteeing safe and durable use even in inclement weather.
Unlike a standard indoor lamp, an IP65 lamp can be used outdoors without risk. Lustria, the online lighting specialist, offers waterproof pendant lights that are both aesthetically pleasing and functional, perfect for gardens, patios, or damp rooms in the home.
The difference between IP44, IP65 and IP67
An IP44 light fixture is splash-proof, while an IP65 pendant light withstands water jets and dust. The higher IP67 rating even protects against temporary immersion.
These ratings help you choose the right lamp for your installation location. An IP65-rated wall light or outdoor pendant provides the necessary safety in areas exposed to rain. The product typically comes with a black fabric cable, a waterproof E27 socket, and a high-quality plug for easy installation.
