3x outdoor wall lights via 3-pin socket?

zudecke · 12 Apr 2022

Hi all - I am wondering if anyone knows if it'd be possible to connect 3x wall lamps (connected by conduit) and feed a weather-proof cable underneath the decking to a 3-pin outdoor socket (as shown here)?

I can't find any wall lights designed for 3-pin sockets. Would it be possible for some electrician to feasibly customise the lighting set to do this?

Doing it this way means I wouldn't need to open up my walls any further to access electricity.

Hope it makes sense?

Attached.

Thanks in advance,

Z

You could do as you suggest, but given the location of the two boxes on the house wall, you might be better to get a switch added so that the lights are on a spur?
If the lights are LED the draw wouldn't be anything to worry about.

Another possible option is to power them via a connection by the French doors?
