Hi guys, just a quick question, if i was to put Downlights in my bathroom bearing in mind that one would go above the bath with a shower over the bath, Would an IP20 rating light be OK? Thanks.

Personally I wouldn't go with anything less than IP65

Bear in mind that you are not allowed to have moisture laden air entering the roof space (building regs) then it's sealed all the way..

Above a shower I tend to install a combined fan light, in other parts I use IP44 or IP 65 fittings, although I prefer to use IP65 for the moisture as said in a previous answer.
