Ip65 downlighting replacement

[greenstick]

Hi

Due to corrosion on the bezels I need to replace the downlighs in the bathroom.

they’re on a dimmer, I’m not sure if it’s just the lamp that needs to be dimmable or if the fitting needs to be capable too?

Looking at replacing this:

With something like this:

Enlite IP65 Fire Rated GU10 Downlight EN-FD103SN Satin Nickel | Toolstation

• 30, 60, 90 minute fire rated • Complies to Building Regs parts B & E • Lamp not included • Order for Enlite LED 5W 500lm warm white lamp • Diameter 86mm. Depth 130mm. Cut out 75mm IP65 with loop-in/loop-out terminal block. • Order for Enlite LED 5W 520lm cool white lamp •...

Using the same gu10 lamps in the current fitting.

That is unless anyone can point me in the direction of brushed chrome bezels that will fit the current ones or a better alternative unit?

Ok.

Yes, just the lamp - but if new ones contain LEDs you will need a compatible lamp/dimmer combination.

Looking at replacing this:

Is above the bathroom your property? If yes, then you don't need fire-rated.
Is the ceiling more than 2.4m from the floor and/or the lights away from the bath? If yes, then you don't need IP65.

That might give you more choice.

GU10 is just the pin arrangement; the lighting arrangement is different - LED as above.

There are some available; I have no details.

Where is the cover that fits over the cables and connector block, and if you find new bezels make sure you re terminate them, there should be no single insulated cable ( brown,blue and cpc ) showing outside of that enclosure

Also, I do not see a CPC (earth) conductor at that downlight terminal. It is important for the earth to be continuous from supply to the last light, even if the downlights themselves do not need an earth.
