Led garden light  

Essential point and not the least, the level of safety of your lights intended for outdoor use, different from that of the lamp for indoor use. Indeed, there are official standards to be respected and to be looked at very closely when buying your outdoor LED lighting on our online store. We strongly recommend you to use the filter on the left side of the screen to select the right IP rating.

Better understand the Protection Index

The IP rating is composed of two numbers that are read separately:

• The first number corresponds to the tightness of the luminaire to solid bodies, it goes from 1 to 6 ;
• The second number corresponds to its impermeability to liquid bodies, it goes from 1 to 9

A sliding scale:

• The higher the first number, the stronger the protection against solid intrusion;
• The higher the second number, the stronger the protection against liquid intrusion

Some examples to understand the IP rating of an outdoor lamp:

IP69 protection rating:

• The first number (6) corresponds to the maximum dust tightness of the luminaire;
• The second number (9) indicates that the luminaire is protected to the maximum extent against water jets

This standard is primarily intended for LED lights to be connected to the electrical network, but do not hesitate to check the level of protection if you choose a solar light.
