Hi,
I'm in the process of rewiring a house and have decided on some downlights for the living room and hallway and landing.
My electrician has said, that although he is only charging me £25 a downlight upstairs, he is charging me £50 a downlight downstairs. Something to do with fire regs???!
1. Is this correct, £50 a downlight seems extortionate to me.
2. I have been looking into buying the downlights myself, but have come across IP ratings of which I know nothing about? Is there a minimum IP rating I need for a lounge?
My lounge is approx. 5m x 4m and I am considering 10 downlights.
Any help would be appreciated.
