Bathroom mirror lighting fixtures are now available in several different designs incorporating either low energy, LED, or halogen bulbs. Some designs come with shaver and toothbrush points discretely housed in the fittings and other are fitted with de-mister pads to eliminate the steaming up effect.

Bathroom Safety

As well as being practical and stylish, bathroom lighting mus comply with current IEE wiring regulations as this will ensure the safe installation of light fittings.

All bathroom light fittings have IP ratings, the level of the rating will determine which “zone” the fitting can be installed in. A bathroom is split into 4 clear zones:

Zone 0 is inside the bath and shower itself. Any fitting used in this zone must be low voltage, (max 12v) and be rated at least IP67 which is total immersion proof.

Zone 1 refers to areas above the bath or shower up to a height of 2.25 meters from the floor and requires a minimum rating of IP44 (splash proof), If the fitting is 240v a 30ma residual current device (rcd) must also be installed to protect the circuit.

Zone 2 refers to an area 0.6 meters wide immediately outside the perimeter of the bath and to a height of 2.25m from the floor. The area around a wash basin within a 60cm radius of any tap should also be treated as zone 2. The minimum rating here is IP44.

Zone 3 is anywhere outside Zones 0, 1 and 2 where no water is likely to be used so has no special requirements. If however water jets are likely to be used for cleaning purposes a fitting with a minimum rating of IP65 must be installed.

It is important to use a NICEIC Part P registered electrician to carry out the installation as they will be able to certify the work.
