Outside spur?
Reply with quote Thanks

Hi

I am planning to get an electrician to fit a cable to an outdoor switchbox
for the electrics to a koi pond.

However I've got a conservatory which has a spur circuit already which is
where I want to cable to exit from the house, Will this be possible or will
a simple RCD plug and a hole drilled through the wall be the only option?

Many Thanks
