Help re outside lights

ERICSMUM · 7 Dec 17, 11:14 AM

I�m putting lights on my hedge and running a cable into the garage. The lights are suitable for outdoors. Ive got a proper waterproof connection box in which the lights plug into a heavy weatherproof extension cable.

My question is about the other end. Where do I put the RCD in ? Between the wall socket and the plug end of the extension cable or at the end where the lights plug into the extension, inside the waterproof box ?

Hope this makes sense !

Thanks as always
