My boss wants a socket fitting outside for us to plug some christmas lights into as on previous years, they've been plugged into one of the rooms through one of the windows which isn't acceptable.
I don't have my handbook with me, but could anyone tell me the regulated dimensions for positioning of outdoor sockets or are they the same as indoor sockets? I just need to get the hole drilled for the cable from the DB on the wall behind where it will go and fit the box to the wall and our sparky will do the rest this afternoon when he gets here. He hasn't got time to do the job today really but my boss wants these lights on for this weekend so he said he could do it if I did the prep work. I just can't get hold of him to ask him where it needs to go.
