Yes, I have 2 3point plug socket outside but not exposed, currently have weatherproof cover-the plastic type. I believe one socket is for the future mini water feature outdoors. But don't know why need one more 3 point plug socket.
After seeing the concerns over weatherpoof cover etc, makes me wonder whether I should ensure extra protection. I have a doorbell switch under Pieno range by schneider but not sure if also need to have cover? QUOTE(weikee @ Jul 8 2014, 08:57 AM) You mean 3 points plug socket? I have one outdoor but is not expose. Have to switch off from inside when not use.  |

Door Bell is 10A 250V. That link you provided looks solid but need transformer right?
The 3 point plug socket is 13A 250V QUOTE(weikee @ Jul 8 2014, 01:22 PM) If you are running low voltage door bell, don't need to have cover. Or if the switch are design for outdoor weather resistance. Even if you need I am not sure you have a direct fitting cover for that switch. Usually are universal and is slightly bigger. |

This one I am not sure? What should I do then?
QUOTE(weikee @ Jul 8 2014, 01:44 PM) Door bell can handle that but you don't need that amount current. Most Important is it design for outdoor for 230v? If it leak out during raining someone pressing the door bell may get electrocute. |
