One of the many jobs I get asked “Do i fit Outside Electrical Sockets?”
The answer is YES.
This is a job/service I have recently introduced due to the high number of people requesting it.
Now to keep things simple for both you as the customer and myself for fitting and costing there are some specific conditions.
I only fit an RCD double socket. This RCD basically (without getting technical) means that it has very specific safety features built in.
IMPORTANT REGARDING FITTING LOCATION – I only fit back to back to an internal socket. Also, your wall needs to be relatively flat. If it is VERY uneven, like some stone then it may be an issue.

A secure and robust permanent outdoor weatherproof double switched socket with latching RCD from BG Electrical Storm range. The RCD protection cuts off power safely and prevents electrocution in the event of a fault, the latching operation means the unit returns to the original state when power is resumed.
