When shopping for outdoor or bathroom lighting, you will most probably have been confronted by a mysterious IP code that is followed by two numbers. This code was designed to provide an easy to understand description of how well-protected a light fitting is.
Here is a helpful guide to what they mean and examples of how a product and a situation match up with an IP code.
The IP in the code is short for Ingress Protection – as in how well protected a fitting is.
The first digit tells you how well protected a fitting is against solids – such as dust, and other objects. The higher the number the more protected it is. On occasion you may find the digit represented by an X. This means the value has not been determined, usually because the product hasn’t been tested for protection against solid objects.
The second digit is used to tell you about the level of liquid protection: 0 being not protected and, the highest value of 8 being safe to submerge in more than 1 meter of water.

Anybody looking for a security light wants them to be durable and protected against the extremities, whether they are to be situated indoors or outdoors. Mostly designed for outdoor use, some have a higher IP rating than others, which can range from an IP of 44 to 68. The Solar PIR Porch Light, for instance, is suitable for use in outdoor buildings such as your garage, shed or porch, with an IP Rating of 44. This means it’s safeguarded against foreign bodies 1mm+s thick and against splashing water. If you want your security light placed in a completely unsheltered area, then the Shatter Resistant LED Floodlight, which is IP65, is just one of the models you could choose. The 6 rating means it is completely dust tight, while the 5 means it’s protected against pressurized water jets from any direction.
If you are re-designing your garden and building a sheltered decking or patio area for you and your family to relax in, then you need lights that are protected but not at the highest end of the scale. The Belinda Low Energy Flush Fitting Standard has an IP Rating of 44, so is protected against small foreign bodies such as stray screws and wires from entering, as well as splashing water. It is hardy and durable and will light up your decking den like a dream.
Our range of outdoor lighting at Lighting Direct varies in IP Rating, so it all depends on what you want it for as to what model you should pick. If you simply want something that makes a statement in terms of style and is rainproof, the Aldwick Pillar IP44 Black Opal Glass Light will definitely do that.
If you want lights that can withstand ultimate pressure then it’s best to go for models such as the Arigo Low Voltage Halogen Garden Spotlight or the Lapis LV Halogen Garden Light. Both have an IP Rating of 68, the highest on the scale, meaning they are completely dust tight and can withstand continuous immersion in water in excess of 1 meter. This makes them ideal for lighting up your garden path or pond or water feature. It is always best however, to check manufacturer’s instructions to ensure your chosen lights are suitable, i.e. placing in a swimming pool.
If you’re still unsure of what IP Rating to go for, check out the tables below for more explanations on IP Ratings. Otherwise…
