The FX Luminaire CA-Top copper path light (part number FXL-96-1981) is rated IP65, meaning it is fully dust-tight and protected against water jets from any direction. This rating makes it suitable for outdoor environments, including areas with heavy snow. When properly installed using the recommended mounting accessories (such as ground-mount spikes or junction boxes), the fixture can safely withstand being buried in snow for extended periods without compromising its functionality or safety. This makes it a reliable choice for use in regions where snow accumulation may cover the fixture for months at a time.
