Rope Light Safety

When it comes to purchasing a set of rope lights, a high standard of safety should never be compromised for the sake of price. There are many features of quality rope lighting systems which you simply won't find with a budget alternative. Yet buying a set of safe and durable rope lights certainly doesn't involve breaking the bank.

Weatherproof Rope Lighting

Wherever you plan to install a set of rope lights, the quality of the materials is all important. High quality rope lighting is manufactured to ip44 specification and utilises strong and highly flexible rubber cabling. This ensures that the lights are weatherproof and suitable for use in an external environment, no matter how cold or wet! Considering the popularity of external rope lighting, particularly around the festive period, illuminations of such quality offer many practical benefits as well as peace of mind.

Fuse Bulb Technology

In addition to durability, the versatile rope lighting available from Lights4Fun features fuse bulb technology. Should one bulb fail, this highly effective circuit preservation ensures that the rest of the lighting doesn't follow suit.

Ip44 rated lighting is the safest option if you are considering a set of indoor illuminations. The insulated rubber cable typically features a PVC coating which doesn't overheat from the bulbs inside. Even if the lighting has been switched on for a reasonable period of time the cable can be touched safely without burning the hands.

As an additional safety measure it is advisable to purchase a surge protector. These units protect your rope lighting system from power surges and minor fluctuations in the electric current.
