Best type of lighting in stables

[Percyprod]

I have built a stable block consisting of two stables and a store. I have applied to have mains electricity installed, and as part p won't apply Iwill be wiring them myself. My question is do led strip lights have as much shadow as led floods. I have been using 12 volt floods, which are great but do cast shadows. I was thinking of fitting weather proof led strip lights, hoping they would be similar to the florescent strip lights. Any ideas?

Always told my son's if they meet a girl who says she likes horses, run a mile.

Because then you'd have to extend the stables ?

Doh.

Have you got one of those rare breed DPG?

OP - did you test the installation in the end?

OP - did you test the installation in the end?

And were the test results stable?

Do I get an award for longest running thread? Horses still alive and well by the way.

Did it all test out ok? Get some photos up of the install

 

[DPG]

Testing? Lol.
I can tell you the results now: "possibly better than before. Can't be any worse can it?"

 

[Percyprod]

As there was no installation before then I suppose it must be better. Yes, all tested, nothing went bang. I suppose you'll tell me that's not how you test it! I got in touch with an ex work colleague, who has all the test gear, which is calibrated up to date, and we checked it all out. I kept a record of the results, job done! You really must stop worrying about me, I'm fine, and so are the horses. I do appreciate your concern though!

 

[DPG]

You were banging on before about the regs not applying and it not needing testing. You're just arguing for arguing's sake.

And nobody is worrying about you.

 

[Percyprod]

But I got it tested on advice given on here. And surely some one cares just a little tiny bit, hmmm?

 

[DPG]

OK, a little bit.

Aw, I feel better now. Thanks!
