    Chassis mount connector for 16v ac output

    I'm looking for something like this but I need the female to be chassis mounted because it's bringing power out not in. Basically I have a 240v ac to 16v ac transformer mounted in a box and need to get the secondary 16v terminals extended to the outside of the box.

    IP Rating requirement for Garage/Workshop Consumer Unit

    I would possibly say a case could be made for 5/4 or even 6/4 given that workshop activity could produce a lot of dust. That's why I asked the question of what the regs require in either a garage or workshop environment. I would, I guess have to go for whichever is higher.

    Fitting a garden gate

    As I thought. Think I may bite the bullet and have it open inwards. It will look better and I won't loose a lot of width. Many thanks for the advice. It was good to bounce my thoughts around with you. Much appreciated. Regards Clive
