Afternoon
builders have cut the wrong size hole to what I told them for shower alcove lights and now finding it hard to source ones that fit their hole!
I told them 32mm and was going to fit these:

Mini Recessed Walk-Over LED Light IP65 - White - https://www.tlc-direct.co.uk/Products/GLM06W.html?source=adwords&ad_position=1o4&ad_id=45425533757&placement=&kw=&network=g&matchtype=&ad_type=pla&product_id=GLM06W&product_partition_id=174054902467&version=finalurl_v3&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIsOO5lcn23AIVxbTtCh2HgQDpEAYYBCABEgK1PPD_BwE

but the hole is now 40mm

so needs:
to fit in 40mm hole and the bezel to cover the 40mm too
ideally 230v or with a driver that fits into a 40mm hole
IP65 rated

cheers
 
Oh this is all just part of the joys we encounter. Leave them the holesaw, you'll never see it again. Leave them the measurements and they will drill it wrong. If normal ceiling and downlights and you say you'll drill after boarding - you'll either see them bringing cables through where they reckon they should be, or they will have trapped cables between board and joists.
