Hi I don\\\'t know that much on how to do this but I currently have a hole through the wall for a pond pump plugged into an RCD usi a normal 3 pin plug. We want to put some patio lights up and I was thinking about putting a weatherproof switch out in the garden one switch for the pump and one for the garden lights. Could i just use the existing plug idea to power the new switch junction box and then power my two devices off of it??

Thanks in advance.

Paul.

yes. make sure you still have RCD protection. if you do it thru a plug, youll be exempt form part P
 
What are:

The rating of the pump
The rating of the lights
The rating of the fuse in the plug
The size of the cables
The type of cables (ordinary flex, hi-tuf etc)
The routes that the cables will take to the switch, and from the switch to the lights and the pump
