ABOUT OUTDOOR LIGHTING
An enormous variety of outdoor lighting fittings are available, in contemporary and traditional designs. These range from outdoor hanging and track lighting, and specialist lights for outdoor umbrellas, to low level lighting in the form of posts or bollards, or recessed into walls or steps.
The International Dark Sky Association certifies approved outdoor lighting fittings as 'Dark Sky Friendly' if they are suitably designed to minimise light pollution.
Outdoor lighting may use mains voltage, or may use a transformer and low voltage. The latter is safer, and requires smaller wires. Some exterior lighting uses halogen bulbs, allowing for smaller fittings.
