Safety

Although we only distribute products that adhere to the highest safety standards, the risks of outdoor illumination are still present. Wherever electricity is used there is an inherent risk associated, no matter how unlikely, this is further increased when exposed to water as outdoor lights frequently are. It is for this reason that we ensure the highest standards in ensuring complete weatherproofing for all our outdoor lighting products.

Weatherproof Cabling & Casing

Rope light designs benefit from their durable yet flexible rubber compound or Epoxy casing. With the wires and bulbs encased within this watertight shell, the vital electronics are protected from water damage. This is further enhanced by IP44 rated wiring and cables, which helps ensure that all electrical components are safely sealed away from the elements. Therefore you can display your seasonal lighting with the peace of mind that, no matter what the conditions, they will keep shining brightly throughout the festive period.

Fuse Bulb Technology

Many also feature Fuse Bulb Technology. In essence this will isolate any bulbs that have blown, allowing the remaining bulbs to continue the usual circuit and function as normal. This saves a great deal of time and expense, should a bulb expire.

LEDs used in some of the rope light designs have their own unique safety features, including a lack of heat emissions. Because they function in a completely different fashion to a standard incandescent filament bulb, they do not radiate heat. Therefore, no matter how long they have been left on for, LED bulbs always remain cool to the touch.
