ip65 rated bathroom downlights

Be careful choosing downlights for bathrooms! They need to conform to the electrical regulations which depends upon their actual position. There are four zones which define what rating your lighting must conform to:

Where Required IP Rating
Zone 0 Inside the bath tub or shower tray (e.g. underwater lighting) At least IP67 and any lighting in this area must be low voltage (12v maximum)
Zone 1 Directly over the bath tub or shower tray to a height of 2.25m At least IP65 and if the fitting is 240v a 30ma RCD must be used to protect the circuit
Zone 2 Over the bath tub or shower tray above zone 1 and the area stretching 60cm outside the perimiter of the bath, shower tray or wash basin and any area within a 60cm radius of any tap At least IP44
Zone 3 Any area outside zone 2 where no water jet is likely to be used. None specified
