really suitable for zone zero? I didn't think it was.

Who says it is?

The listing says zones 1-3 when ceiling mounted.

Sorry I meant zone one.


Well AFAIK the IPx4 rating means that by definition it's suitable for zone
1, unless I'm mistaken?


I think I read something that said it had to be IP65 for zone one but I am
not really sure.
The one I am replacing isn't IP anything but its half in zone one.
