Installing outdoor lighting and sockets. 

Nice one,another enjoyable and informative video

i always put a bead of silicone around the top and sides of the box

Never installed a socket in my 50 years as a American electrician. Installed thousands of duplex receptacles. Got shocked with 120, 208, 240, 277 volts and a few hits with 5,000 volt oil burner transformers. Always thought the USA system of only using 120 volt for all 15 & 20 amp circuits ten times safer then the 220 or 240 volts that most if the world uses.

Class mate how did you manage to fish the flex to the switch?

Is it industry standard now for ferrules to be fitted when installing sockets/ switches?

What was the previous spark thinking using 2 modes of switching? Overkill as the spur is switched & has fuse protection. Great vid👍

What's the average cost for installing a double external socket?

orange crimps on a 1.5 mm flex...? orange is 4mm black is 1.5mm .. FTR .. also i would have back filled the penetrations through the wall with silicon or similar (maybe you did as you did on the socket) and maybe even added an exterior wiska box ... just my comments on the light. also do you not always drill out the drain hole on those external sockets to prevent the issue you raised on water ingress ?

Did you drill out the drain hole on the outside socket?

Where are you based as i"m looking for a good sparks.

What size is the fuse?

Couldn’t you have replaced the switched fuse with a single socket and moved the switched fuse to the right? 1st year apprenticeship trying to soak up as much knowledge as I can! Enjoying the vids 😊
