IP rated plug in ceiling rose

Baldyhugh

Hi All

I think I have asked a similar question a few years ago but I'm throwing it out there again incase any new products have come to market since then. Im looking for an IP44 rated (or higher) plug in ceiling rose or similar to connect to luminaires at high level. Its an agricultural install so IP44 is a minimum. Following suggestions the previous time I asked. I was using IP55 socket outlets with a standard 13a plugtop to fulfil this but a plug in ceiling rose or similar with the necessary IP rating would be the ideal solution. Does anyone know of such an item available out there?

thanks

    If it's agricultural could you not just use a 16amp commando socket ?

    Hi Gary

    Yes that would be an option however I would be looping in n and out to go from one fitting to the next  and also the installation is pvc conduit and singles which a standard 16a commando socket wouldn’t have many conduit entry points unless I used the larger switched variety and then it becomes a bit of overkill.
