Hi people
I\\\'m intending to spur off an internal socket to have a garden socket on the other side of the wall. I already have an RCD with the consumer unit. Just a couple questions.
A) How do you make sure that no rain can get in the gap between the brick wall and the socket outside?
B) Do I have to protect the 2 core and earth spur cable with conduit all the way from the internal socket (most of it will be in the wall) to the external. If so what conduit, PVC?
C) Does the external socket need to be IP55 or IP56?
Cheers
