Hi gents, I have just been to look at a job to renew 14 existing down lights. Not a problem normally, but the existing holes are 10 cm wide and I need the fittings to be fire rated and IP 65. Has anyone found any that would fit this size of hole? I have looked at the conversion kits, but they all seem to be IP 20 only.
I know that I could repair the existing holes first, then start again, but that would be mighty laborious and time consuming. Any ideas would be gratefully received.
cheers Dave
 
Ipf, I knw where you're coming from, but I have to work from below on one of the ceilings and above it is a tiled floor, so hoods would be rather difficult. I am probably clutching at straws, but I am hoping that someone will know of a fitting which will do the job? Thanks for the reply buddy.
 
Hi guys, thanks for the replies. Helsenberg, I am looking for the 230v type, if you have any ideas, they will be gratefully received.
Mogga, I will do a search for the Halers evolved, but, looking at the conversion plates, I have already seen, they appear to be IP 20 only. Do you have a different type, (IP65) that you know of?

Very small indeed, but I see it needs a 24v driver, or 12v if you look through the specs. Confusing. I’ve got cut-offs of LED white tape and...
