Review: Works well - It’s just a standard fused spur housed in a waterproof enclosure but works well. Early access to the fuse when the hinged front cover is released. Does what it’s supposed to.
Review: Easy to install outdoor junction box - Just what I wanted - external spur providing power for the wife’s new garden room. Ok, I’ve not built that yet, but… 😏 Box is easy to fit, great being able to turn it on/off using the membrane enclosed switch, and I like the little pilot light showing that it’s connected to power. I’m sure it’s waterproof, but haven’t been able to verify that yet since it’s not rained here for about a month! 🌵🏜️🐪🥵 Please God… 🙏

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I'm going to use the rear entry hole. Is what size of grommet will I need to waterproof this?**
A: I was dismayed to find that no grommets (O rings) were supplied with this socket as required by law to protect the electrics. I was unable to purchase grommets on Easter Sunday so had to use builder's silicone to waterproof the socket.  An electrical shop should be able to advise you what size grommets are needed to fit the rear entry hole if you take the socket with you.

**Q: Do i need a separate rcd for this**
A: No but it is good working practice I think to install a 13 amp fused spare inside before you run cable through to the new unit outside if your connection is on a wall say 2 metres away I would use steal wired armoured cable hope this helps

**Q: Can anyone tell me is this item white as the description says or is it grey and black ?**
A: The sockets are white, the surrounds are grey and the cover is black.

**Q: Would this be suitable for embedding in soil (power led xmas lights on garden trees)?**
A: The waterproof external double electric socket would be ideal on a wooden post, which could be cemented into the ground; make sure the post is a good 24 inches out of the ground and treated...ideal for xmas lights and caravan or anything that takes your fancy really!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Easy to install outdoor junction box
*by D***L on 26 July 2026*

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Con-fused? Nah
*by P***N on 23 September 2026*

Solid weatherproof unit, but the cable knockouts are tough to remove I installed this BG Electrical Weatherproof Fused Spur Switch to isolate my outdoor garden lighting, and it feels like a really rugged piece of kit. The IP66 rating gives me total peace of mind against heavy rain, and the LED power indicator is incredibly handy for seeing at a glance whether the circuit is live without having to open the clear cover. The only reason I'm dropping a star is that the plastic cable knockouts are quite stiff to pop out. If you aren't careful with your punch or screwdriver, you can easily crack the surrounding housing casing. Once it's wired and mounted, though, the seal is completely tight and it looks neat on the external wall.
