I have a pair of 'waterproof' outdoor timers to wire up on a job.
The customer already has the obligatory dual gang IP66 sockets fitted in the garden ( BG IP66 13A Switched Socket 2 Gang | Toolstation )
The issue is the timers have the plug end at the bottom and timer at the top, meaning they foul the cover of the socket. Currently I'm stumped on how to put them inline (extension socket, short plug to socket lead, etc. ) without allowing water to ingress somewhere. I had thought of putting them indoors near the consumer unit on their own spurred socket but the powered items in the garden require different times to function correctly (pond fountain and lighting)
Any suggestions ?
