In a rainy day environment, outdoor wall lights as a long-term exposure to the natural environment of the electrical device, its waterproof performance is undoubtedly to ensure the safety of the use of the primary considerations. The industry generally adopts the IP (Ingress Protection) rating to accurately measure the waterproof and dustproof capability of a luminaire.
Outdoor wall lights with an IP44 rating have a certain degree of splash resistance and are suitable for installation in relatively sheltered environments such as under sheltered eaves. In light rainy weather conditions, they can operate more stably and protect the basic lighting function, while IP65 and above make a quantum leap in terms of waterproof and dustproof performance, being able to achieve complete dustproofness and effectively withstand high-pressure water jets from all directions.
In the wiring process, the electrician is required to work carefully to ensure that the wires are connected firmly and tightly, to prevent the interface from being exposed or loose phenomenon. The non-standard treatment of the interface is very easy in the rainy and humid environment triggering short circuit, leakage and other serious electrical accidents, posing a direct threat to personal safety and property safety. It is recommended that users conduct at least one comprehensive and detailed inspection of outdoor wall lights every year, focusing on whether the insulation layer of the wire is damaged, whether there are signs of aging, such as cracking the shell of the lamps and lanterns. Insulation damage will make the conductor inside the wire directly exposed, increasing the risk of leakage; lamp shell cracking will destroy the waterproof and dustproof performance of the lamps and lanterns, so that the rain and dust easily invade the lamps and lanterns inside, damage to the circuit components. Once the aging problem is found, the relevant parts should be repaired or replaced in time.
So don't worry about our large black outdoor wall sconces, large white outdoor wall lights, black and gold exterior lights and so on outdoor lighting in the rainy day is not safe, waterproof performance is awesome.
