My outdoor socket had a lid but it's broken off. Can I put this over exsisting socket to keep socket and plugs dry?
Hi RogerIW,
This is a weatherproof enclosure intended as a junction box or to contain any items which need to be outside but protected from weather, by completely surrounding the connection or item.
Where there is an existing socket enclosure it is unlikely that this box will fit over it as the back section would need to be under / behind the existing wall box in order to ensure the box is correctly sealed against fluid once the lid is screwed on.
