Are these approved for wet / damp location use as defined by the National Electric Code?

Not sure about that but mine are around a covered patio and have survived several storms.

Yes I believe they are!! Mine have been out through the rain and wind so I believe they are UL Approved.

I actually purchased three of these for my kitchen and they are fine. They are rated for damp conditions, so that's just a plus over the sink or in a bathroom!

I'm not really sure what you mean by "damp locations". I think it would be fine in a bathroom. It's really beautiful! As far as dimmable, doesn't that depend on the switch? It just takes a regular bulb, so if the swith is a dimmable switch, it should be fine. Good luck.

Where they are used isn't an issue so long as the fixture in which they are used is rated accordingly. By careful to not use them where they are not approved, as there is a fire risk involved. If your fixture is not rated for 150 watts, you may be in danger.

Yes! The ability to work in damp location is a bonus. It will work just as well in a dry location! Great quiet fan!

Any indication that this fixture is suitable for wet locations would be a mistake. The unit is only for dry locations.

I am unaware. I used them in the soffit of my Northern woods cabin. All types of weather no problems yet. They are not a sealed type unit. There may be some condensation concerns with the electrical light socket above the baffle.

I don't believe so. As far as I know, this Wet Switch is designed to be used for the HVAC (Furnace). If you do a search on the internet on "Wet Switch Installation", you'll see that it has wires that you connect to the HVAC unit. It is designed to turn off the furnace once it detects water/moisture. My HVAC technician installed it. I am not an electrician or HVAC specialist. This is all I know. Sorry that I'm not much of a help.

I use mine in an unheated outside garage. They don't get wet or stand in puddles but have worked great on a lumber rack I made. JL

No restrictions to the contrary. Keep protected in inclimate weather if using on patio, gazebo, etc. Have a licensed electrician install properly, safely.

It is designed for use in dry areas, and non-enclosed, non-dimmable fixtures. So outdoor use is not recommended.

Yes The label says this is an "outdoor non weather proof transformer. Dry and damp location type 2."

The plug is probably not designed or rated for wet weather use. However, if it is sheltered, as in under a roof, the eave of a roof, it will probably work fine for a limited time/use application. For example, using the plug on the end of a power cable to plug a generator into a receptable during a power outage, using it until the power is restored, then disconnecting the power cord and putting it back away in a dry location. I would not use it in a permanent damp location.

Yes. A gfci outlet is needed near wet locations to protect. Replacing it with somthing other could cause harm. But if not a wet location then it should work fine.

They are air cooled. Used Indoors only at this wattage and voltage if they are 110 volts. They do make a style for outdoor lighting that is low voltage. but if this is a 50 watt 120 volt then it must be used in dry location indoors not outdoors where moisture can get to it. If it used in a sealed water tight fixture outdoors then maybe ok...but double check your wattage in the sealed 110/120 volt fixture make certain it does not say 20 watt. A sealed fixture can get too hot out doors too.

No. Printed on the bulb itself is the text: "Caution not for use in totally enclosed luminaries suitable for damp locations" (two separate lines split between luminaries & suitable. It is not clear to me if this means it can be used in damp locations or not, but definitely not in enclosed lamps.)

I have installed these above ground but usually put a box over to protect from sunlight. They are totally waterproof but of course your electrical connections will need to be waterproof nuts. And the valve is female pipe x female pipe.Curt
