Hi
I have bought an outdoor electrical enclosure which holds a standard 4 gang extension lead to power things such as decking lights, xmas lights and any electric garden tools. I would like to control power via an external waterproof switch instead of unplugging individual plugs within the enclosure.
Can the 4 gang be wired directly into an outdoor switch to allow power on/off or should it be plugged into an outdoor socket that is then controlled via a separate outdoor switch. I do not want to use an outdoor socket with switch as do not want to keep opening and closing the waterproof box.
Thanks for your help.
