FAQs
Are outdoor sockets safe in heavy rain?
Yes – IP65/IP66 sockets are designed for direct rain exposure. Always install with suitable glands and seals.
Can I plug an EV charger into a weatherproof socket?
A dedicated EV consumer unit is always best, but IP65 sockets are often used for low-power charging or as auxiliary outlets.
Do outdoor sockets need RCD protection?
Yes – the 18th Edition requires all outdoor sockets to be protected by an RCD or RCBO. See our RCBO range for compliance.
