strung together this:

TLC Direct seem to be the way to go. I also found some cheaper RCD
outdoor sockets, but they were only rated at IP54, which looks a bit
pants.


That is rain proof, so you only need to worry if you plan to hose the socket
down or expect deep floods.

With the flap closed no doubt. With the cheap sockets if you open the flap it is
nore waterproof than a normal internal socket. That's why I recommended the MK
Masterseal range, they're IP rating is the same when a plug is inserted as the
lid seals the plug and socket and the flex inside.
