Even if it’s Class 2? The requirements are regarding “hazardous” parts. For the submersion, again, Class 2 and submersing the device will not result in a hazardous situation.

Best Regards, John "John Allen" <[email protected]> Sent by: [email protected] 09/03/2009 09:43 AM To <[email protected]> cc Subject IP Rating on Class 2 Powered LED Fixture Hi all, If we have a potted LED fixture that is supplied by a Class 2 power supply, can it be rated IP68 based on design vs testing? Even if it is not potted such that low voltage parts are accessible, can it be rated IP68? The version of IEC60529 we have does not have a lower voltage limit. The scope indicates for devices with a rated voltage not exceeding 72.5kV. Any input would be greatly appreciated. John Allen Product Safety Consulting, Inc. 605 Country Club Dr. | Stes.
