FIRE RATED RECESSED LIGHTING ASSEMBLY
Provided is a fire rated or resistant recessed lighting assembly including a metal housing inside of which a lighting unit is placed, the housing being fire resistant for 120 minutes when tested according ASTM E11.9-12a without a protective fire resistant cover on outside of the housing. The fire resistant recessed lighting assembly can include a metal housing inside of which a light is placed and one or both of: i) an object made of a fire resistant material, such as an intumescent material, placed inside of the housing in between a trim and a closed end of the housing; and an ring made of a fire resistant material, such as an intumescent material, placed outside of the housing, wherein in event of a fire, the intumescent material expands to slow spread of the fire.
