OK so where do i get guidelines of fitting these lights into an

IET.

Personally I advise you not to fit such lights, anywhere.

what alternatives would you suggest? the room will be a gallery with
paintings/art on the wall. the idea with using recessed gu10 fitting
was to have unobtrusive lighting, which can be directional (ie aimed
at the wall if needed). i thought gu10 because i may have future
options (ie LED - if/when this technology improves) but in the interim
to go for the next best which i think is probably CFL. ideally thes
would also be dimmable (megaman DORS)
we'd like to avoid pendants and only use flourescent tubes if we can
hide the fitting (uplighters? bouncing light of the ceiling) but i've
been unable to find anythinh that fits the bill ...
