What fire rated covers do I need?

Posted by rita roche, on
I have had some 3.5 W GU10 LED downlights fitted straight into my main electrical ceiling line (?) and I am still worried about a fire, should I be worried about a fire Do I need covers for these? If yes, what spec should they be for 3.5W LED? Thank you!

Hi Rita, If the downlights are fire rated and every connection was safely enclosed, you shouldn't worry about a fire. If the downlights are not fire rated you can get some fire hoods and have an electrician fit them. Regards,
