I know someone around here who has 2 exterior receptacles wired to
interior ones, with the GFCI in the interior location. This makes it
easy to control holiday lights without having to go out in bad
weather.


Never thought of doing that. The outlet I put in the front of my house is
controlled by an indoor switch for that reason.


Hi,
I just use digital timer. X-mas lights receptacle is built-in right
under the eave and on exterior walls where needed.
