Ive been dropping these bits on hubby, to prepare him for the extra costs involved and inspections will be the next one (I dropped Tiger Tails for overhead wires the other day). Researching split home designs for our KDR downward sloping block Re: Charlibear's Build with GJ Gardner 893Aug 20, 2016 1:31 pm Marshall5858 Charlibear, have you seen the new electrical thread on here? I was having a read and saw something that may apply to you and your beautiful pendant light for your bathroom (I hope not because it's such a lovely idea) anyway, this is what I'm referring to- Building with Simonds in S.A Yes we have just bought oyster bathroom lights for steam and dampness etc. Dont want the fitting rusting out as the shades for bathrooms are totally sealed. Build thread viewtopic.php?f=31&t=81011 Re: Charlibear's Build with GJ Gardner 894Aug 20, 2016 1:59 pm Thanks Marshall, we plan to put the pendant light just off to the side from the bath so hopefully the electrician says we can do it. Splits we don't really have building inspectors here where we are, but I know a guy that used to be a building inspector from Sydney he mainly specialised in commercial projects, he said he would look over the build for us. I find it peace of mind considering the amount we are investing GJ Gardner Modified Coolum 277 viewtopic.php?t=83643 Re: Charlibear's Build with GJ Gardner 895Aug 20, 2016 10:17 pm CB - I looked up lighting and around bathtubs, to the side is considered Zone 2 and any lights in this area, pendant or not need to be rated IPX4. Does your pendant have this rating on the box or elsewhere? Anywhere else in the bathroom, except for over the bath or shower, along the wall of the shower or within 600mm of the bath or shower can have any rating or no rating. This you may want to check on. ~Shellby~ GJ Bridgewater 203 11/3/2016 - Site Work Started 29/9/2016 - Handover 142 Work Days 6 Work Days Over https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=80174 Re: Charlibear's Build with GJ Gardner 896Aug 21, 2016 12:57 pm I'll have to check it out shell, thanks!!
