Lewden weather proof socket

I'm pretty sure that mine is fixed from inside the box, with the screws going through a metal washer, a rubber washer a bit like a tap seal, then the "box", then another rubber washer, before reaching the wall.

My outside sockets all have internal screwholes. There is a rubber bung goes in the screwhead recesses,, (Which are quite deep).

The sockets also have drain holes in the boxes and a gasket between box and socket and a hinged lid over the socket that can be closed with a plug in the socket.

Are they black diecast Lewden sockets?

At 30 years old it could be fastened to the wall with tapped steel conduit with the pyro running through the bit of conduit:-)

You are going to have to take a picture.

Lewden do a black and grey range. They are similar but different.

No conduit - just the pyro. And two lugs on the outside with screws through them into the wall.

This one is definitely black. Underneath the green moss. ;-)

At thirty years old they will be long obsolete and crap. The OP needs the up to date stuff.

Pyro in conduit? That would have been an interesting install if there were any bends in the conduit.

Gosh - they'll used 13A connectors.

A 13 amp socket is obsolete? Have you been reading Wiki again?

You seem to not have understood the question - again. It being about a replacement.

Could this possibly be the same harry who bangs on and on about renewable energy and saving the planet?

I meant just through a final connection of conduit to a BESA box or similar:-)
