Discuss Fire rated or not in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net

I do hope so, I've fitted thousands of the things

The open back is much better for lamp life than baked bean can designs that concentrate heat.
 
Pretty sure I can see an intumescent fire seal on that. 'Fire rated' doesn't mean enclosed or safe around flammable material. It simply means the unit will maintain a fire barrier for a given period of time.
Doesn't the fire rated also require a back with an intumescent seal ?

The open wouldn't have the fire rating to maintain the barrier?
