Product Information
Full details
This Lieber polished chrome GU10 square downlight is ideal for homeowners and electricians seeking a reliable, fire-rated lighting solution at a great price. Its key benefit is its dual fire rating (60 and 90 minutes) combined with an IP65 rating for use in humid environments like bathrooms. A potential caveat is that the bulb is not included and requires a separate GU10 bulb.

FAQs
Is a GU10 bulb included with the Lieber downlight?
No, the GU10 bulb is not included. You will need to purchase a compatible GU10 bulb separately. Ensure it does not exceed the 35W maximum.
What does IP65 rating mean for this downlight?
An IP65 rating means the downlight is protected against dust ingress and protected against low-pressure jets of water from any direction. This makes it suitable for installation in bathrooms (Zone 1) and other potentially damp environments.
How long is the guarantee for this downlight?
The Lieber downlight comes with a 3-year guarantee.
Can I install this downlight in a standard ceiling?
Yes, it is designed for standard ceilings and fits cut-outs of 72mm. It can accommodate ceiling thicknesses from 30mm up to 45mm by repositioning the springs.
What is the purpose of the fire rating?
The fire rating (60 and 90 minutes) indicates how long the downlight can maintain its integrity during a fire, helping to prevent the spread of flames and smoke through ceilings. This is crucial for fire safety compliance.
Do I need a transformer for this downlight?
No, this downlight operates directly from your mains voltage (220-240V) and does not require a separate transformer.
Troubleshooting
Downlight does not turn on
Check that the power supply is switched on at the mains. Verify the GU10 bulb is correctly installed and functioning. Ensure all wire connections are secure within the connector clips.
Flickering light
This could be due to a loose bulb or connection. Turn off power, remove and reinsert the GU10 bulb firmly. Check wire connections. If the issue persists, try a different GU10 bulb.
Poor fit in ceiling
Confirm the cut-out size is correct (72mm). If the ceiling material is thicker than 30mm, ensure the springs have been repositioned correctly for up to 45mm thickness.
