IC rated stands for “Insulation Contact rated.” It refers to light fixtures designed to be safely installed in direct contact with ceiling insulation without the risk of overheating or fire. IC-rated housings are built with thermal protection and heat-resistant materials that prevent excessive heat build-up, making them essential for energy-efficient and code-compliant recessed lighting installations in insulated ceilings.
