Title: IP Encolsures for sockets / LV transformers Post by Paul on Nov 10th, 2009, 10:18am Hi All, Looking for some guidance / advice. We are currently having a new garden room built to replace an old Upvc conservatory. We have LV lighting in our garden and originally the LV cables went through a panel and plugged in to sockets in the conservatory. What I would like to have with the new garden room is a pair of FCUs on the inside wall, controlling a pair of double sockets on the outside wall in an suitable IP rated enclosure that would contain the LV PSU to run the lights. Can anyone recommend any suitable enclosures / suppliers. It will be suitably installed by the electrician, but we are very early in the build and I haven't met the builders sparky yet to discuss, so I'm looking for suggestions. Many thanks. Paul |
