Buying 220V garden lighting
There are several factors to consider when choosing LED garden lighting. When purchasing garden lighting, the functional purpose is the primary consideration. For example, are you looking to buy garden lighting to create extra ambiance in the garden, or do you want to increase safety? A combination of both types is, of course, also possible. To create extra ambiance in the garden, many customers choose attractive wall lights or standing outdoor lamps. Do you need a bright light for near the shed or back door? We offer various small LED floodlights for this purpose, or alternatively, solar-powered floodlights. When it comes to LED garden lighting, there are a few important considerations:
Waterproof properties
When purchasing LED lighting for the garden, the most important thing is that the lighting is waterproof.This is because the lighting may come into contact with water or moisture, as LED lighting is exposed to all kinds of weather conditions. When it rains or snows, it is important that the lighting is resistant to this. The lighting should also not cause any problems at high temperatures or temperatures below zero. Therefore, it is important to check the IP rating of a product. An IP standard applies to LED lighting.
High IP rating
The IP rating, or Ingress Protection rating, is a classification system that indicates how well the housing of the garden lighting is resistant to the ingress of water, dust, and dirt. The IP rating consists of two digits. The first digit indicates protection against dust, and the second digit indicates protection against water. The higher the number, the better the protection.
For garden lighting, an IP rating of at least IP44 is generally recommended. This means the lighting is sufficiently protected against moisture and water jets (such as rain). If the lighting comes into direct contact with water, such as with recessed ground spots, a higher IP rating, like IP67, is advised. This is because these spots are in constant contact with moisture from the soil. It is always advisable to check the specific IP rating before purchasing garden lighting and compare it with the conditions in which the lighting will be installed.
Durability and Energy Efficiency
LED garden lighting is highly energy-efficient compared to traditional halogen garden lighting. This is because LED bulbs consume less energy to produce the same amount of light.In addition, LED lights have a much longer lifespan than traditional lights, meaning you have to replace them less often. This allows you to enjoy the lighting for a longer period of time. Not only does this save on your energy bill, but it is also better for the environment.
Ease of installation
Installing garden lighting is very easy. Most garden lighting can also be connected directly to the mains (220-230 Volt). Some lighting requires wiring and professional installation, while other lighting can be easily attached to the ground or a wall. Choose an option that suits your skills and preferences. The installation is described in a few short steps below:
- Determine the location of the lighting.
- Dig a trench if there is no power source nearby.Make sure the trench is deep enough and protect the cable with an electrical conduit to prevent damage.
- Connect the lighting to the power cable and ensure that all connections are secure and waterproof.
- Test the lighting: test the lighting to check that it is working correctly.
- Cover the cables: cover the cables with soil or gravel to prevent damage.
Installing 220 Volt garden lighting is easy using our waterproof connectors. This allows you to connect the power cables together easily and completely waterproof.
