[QUOTE="binky, post: 483691, member: 490"] OK as per commenst above, but if cable run for an independent cct is difficult from existing CU, then a spur off the sockets is possible, although not ideal. Needless to say garden electrics are a bit prone to damp and could trip out your socket cct (this shouldn't happen if installed correctly but....) so a mini CU isn't a bad idea as this will have a double pole isolator, so any issues you can shut the outdoor electrics down. You also need to consdier earthing arrangements for the blow up jacuzzi, which is a serious issue should it be done wrong. As far as electricans are concerned these devices are the work of Beelzebub....difficult to properly protect. [/QUOTE]
