Options for outdoor lighting replacement. 

Last month, a recent project in South Petherton required helping a homeowner with outdoor light fittings. The light fixtures were in pretty bad condition having been exposed to the elements. The external wall mounted lights had become corroded over the years and didn’t fit in with the exterior of the property.

Our recommendations were to either do our best to clean and maintain the existing outdoor lighting or to go for full on outdoor lighting replacement. When weighing up the pros and cons of both scenarios, we did want the customer to have the best long term solution so the most suitable option was replacement.

The old lighting fixtures were removed and modern DAR lighting was installed. The customer was over the moon with the improved appearance and the speed at which the replacement was carried out.

If you’re facing some difficulties with the state of existing outdoor lighting and need an experienced electrician to take a look, Tyne Electrical Service will surely come up with a solution to suit your home in Bridport.

How do I know if outdoor lighting replacement is safe?

Tyne Electrical Service makes sure all weather approved components are used when carrying out outdoor lighting replacements. This includes using the correct IP rated light fittings according to the level of exposure to heavy jets of water.

Another way we make sure our electrical work is safe is through incorporating RCD protection. All outdoor light circuits must include RCD or Residual Current Device protection to prevent injury from electric shocks. Safety precautions such as RCD protection is essential, especially in gardens where the risk of damaging cables with the lawn mower or water making its way into a socket is possible.

Finally, as with all indoor electrical work, outdoor electrical installations or replacements carried out by Tyne Electrical services will comply with BS 7671.
