Whats the best way to proceed with wanting to install a power socket in my greenhouse?
I already have an SWA armoured cable going from my house consumer unit to my greenhouse. The cable is terminated in a junction box in the greenhouse, and turned off at the consumer unit.
I now want to install an outdoor plug socket in the greenhouse. Can the cable go straight into an outdoor plug socket (with CW gland) if I remove the junction box? Should it first go into a switch so the socket can be isolated whilst I'm in the greenhouse if needed?
I can't get a local sparky to come and look as the job is too small, and perhaps they don't like that it's an existing cable?
