How do you read a lighting IP rating?
An IP rating indicates how well lights and other electrical equipment are protected against solid objects, dust and water. The first digit indicates protection against solids and dust; the second indicates protection against water.
What does IP65 mean?
IP65 means the equipment is dust-tight and protected against water jets. IP65 lights are therefore common outdoors, in parking garages and in dusty or damp commercial spaces.
IP66 or IP67?
IP66 provides protection against powerful water jets. IP67 adds protection against temporary immersion in water. A higher IP rating is not automatically better — choose protection based on the actual conditions.
