Downlights in wooden soffet

[DennisLS]

A while ago I asked a question about fitting downlights in soffets (wooden)
I was advised to get shower downlights with the f mark.I was told these would be weatherproof, however, today I bought some. First thing I read when I opened the pack was " This product is suitable for indoor use only"

I appreciate that when they are in situ they are not going to be "rained on"
but will they be ok?

What IP rating are they marked as?

 

[DennisLS]

Excuse my ignorance ip rating?

They are suitable for bathrooms zone 3 and outside zones

They are most definately NOT shower lights, then. Shower lights are invariably IP65/6...

Fitting is sealed to IP65 making it suitable for bathrooms and exterior soffits if fitted in accordance with IEE regulations.
