The short answer is: it depends entirely on the IP rating of the specific product. IP stands for Ingress Protection and it is the standard measure of how well an electrical product resists dust and moisture.
Most standard LED table centres are designed for indoor use and carry no meaningful IP rating for outdoor conditions. Using them outdoors in the UK, where even a supposedly dry evening can produce unexpected moisture from dew, condensation, or a passing shower, risks damaging the LED components and the electronics.
Products specified for outdoor use need an IP rating of at least IP65, which means the product is fully dust-tight and protected against water jets from any direction. For permanent outdoor installations in the UK climate, IP67 or IP68 is preferable.
Boardsy’s bespoke capability means outdoor-rated versions of products like the round column LED table centre can be specified for the right brief. If your requirement is outdoor events, outdoor terraces, or garden venues, the conversation to have is about the specific use case so the right IP rating can be built into the specification from the start.
