LED strip lights are the safest and most desirable bet you could make for swimming pool lightings. Swimming pool lighting is more of an aesthetic need than a real utility. 

LED strip lights are IP68 rated but still, they are protected by a layer of polycarbonate material. Before LED strip light is installed in the swimming pool, the pool is emptied. Afterward, a layer of strip light or any other LED lighting is installed.

This polycarbonate layer is to insulate LED lights so that no current leakage happens. Once this layering is done,

Make sure to use strip lights that have a rating of IP67 or higher for installation in a wet environment. For higher protection or full submersion, use IP68-rated strips. Since these lights will have contact with water, it is important to use low-voltage strip lights (12V-24V) to reduce the risk of danger if a problem with the strips or power suppliers were to happen. Some jurisdictions require above-ground pool lighting to meet National Electrical Code (NEC) Article 680 standards, which would limit possible pool lighting installation locations. Before you purchase pool lights, check your local code requirements.

Take caution when handling and installing electrical components near water. It is imperative to turn off all power supplies during the installation, use watertight wire connectors, and make sure there are no exposed wires. If you are not comfortable completing your pool light installation, have a certified electrician install your lights. 

Additionally, exposure to harsh chemicals such as chlorine and salt water may cause the housing of your strip lights to deteriorate over time. To extend the lifetime of your lights, we recommend installing the strip lights a few inches above the waterline to decrease contact with water. It is important to regularly check your lights to make sure they are working properly and do not have any exposed components.
