Zone 1: This is the area above the bath or shower to a height of 2.25m from the floor. Light fittings within this area must reach a minimum of IP44, however, shower lights are generally designed to IP65 and are perfect for use in Zone 1 installations. There is no requirement for lights to be low voltage within this zone.

There was not a specific advance warning sign of a stop or give way sign prior to 1964, although the regulatory "Halt/Slow major road ahead" signs were sited in advance of the junction, rather than at the stop/give way line.

Zone 0: This zone relates to the physical space within the tub or in simple terms, the area in which you would sit in if taking a bath. For showers, Zone 0 alludes to the foot basin space. Any lighting within this area must be low voltage, to a maximum of 12v and any transformer or LED driver must be located outside of the bathroom. Lights must be a minimum of IP67 which means they are protected against the effects of immersion.

Ingress Protection rating: Ingress means entering, in the case of bathroom lights it means, water or steam entering a light fitting – Ingress protection means the amount it is protected. There are various Ingress Protection ratings =IP ratings. The higher the IP rate is, the more protected the light is.

Outside of zones: The rest of your bathroom falls into this area and doesn’t require an IP rating for any of the lights used. It’s often recommended however that any downlights, wall lights or ceiling lights you might choose have a rating of at least IP44. This helps ensure that the lights are well protected from unintentional splashing or steam, as steam will make its way out of the shower area. Having IP44 rated lights will ensure that they are protected from corrosion and prolong their life.

Stop Ahead and Yield Ahead signs – for exceptional use before junctions with very restricted advance visibility – are, however, provided for in the Irish Traffic Signs Manual. They consist of the standard Stop or Yield signs minus the words STOP or YIELD (i.e. a blank red octagon or an empty downward-pointing red-bordered white triangle), mounted above a supplementary plate stating the distance to the junction. (Images to be added later)

Table only as guideline, if space doesn't permit then a smaller sign may be used, however if accident record justifies it a larger sign may be used, however supplement plate must match size.

Every light fitting has an IP rating. Bathroom lights must have higher IP ratings than lights you would use in the lounge, dining room or bedrooms etc.

The light in a bathroom needs to be as bright and as evenly spread as possible without any glare to the eye. The most important area to concentrate on usually, is around the wash basin area for make – up application and shaving etc. It is important to remember that a central bathroom ceiling light will create shadows whilst facing into a mirror at the basin area. The use of mirror lights on or over the mirror will help combat this.

Lighting in the bathroom is important. Regulations are very strict as to which lights you are able to use in a bathroom and to complicate matters, bathrooms have different zones, which determine what type of light you may use within that zone. Light fittings that are used in a bathroom are IP rated.

The sign (diagram 501) introduced in 1964 is an inverted warning triangle (i.e. one with the vertical point at the bottom) like the give way sign (diagram 602), with the difference that the white area within the red border is blank. This sign is always supplemented by diagram 502 "STOP" or diagram 503 "GIVE WAY" text plates with a distance to the junction in yards.

IP rating: An IP rating will have 2 or 3 numbers after it, for example IP 68. The first number corresponds to solid material entering the light fitting. E.g. Dust, tools, fingers etc. The second number would correspond to water or steam entering the light fitting.

Consideration of bathroom lighting extends beyond pure aesthetics due to the presence of water and steam within the room. Bathrooms and shower rooms are areas of high risk due to the very low resistance of the human body when wet or immersed in water. Rigorous precautions must be taken when choosing and installing your bathroom lighting. We strongly recommend that you contact an electrician registered with one of the governments approved schemes to carry out any electrical work that you need within the bathroom.

Zone 2: Zone 2 is the area immediately adjacent to the bathtub or shower foot basin and also from the taps of any hand basin with an additional 0.6m added for safety purposes. Again, any equipment should be subjected to a minimum IP44 rating. There is no Zone 2 in a wet room.

Whilst it is important to select the style of fitting to suit your decor, safety is the most important factor when choosing a light for your bathroom. The guidelines for bathroom lights, above will help you decide which zone sector the requirements are for the positioning of light fittings in the bathroom.

In almost all cases in the Republic of Ireland, warning of an imminent junction with a major road – at which it will be necessary to either stop or yield – is given by means of a standard yellow-diamond warning sign bearing the appropriate diagram for the layout of the junction concerned (crossroads, T-junction, etc.), the thicker line indicating the major road, as shown in the accompanying image.
