WiFi operated socket

[chris day]

Hello guys
Client wants to control a load attached to a 13a plug outside.

Initially I was thinking of large ip rated box containing a socket with a WiFi plug adaptor which will be installed outside.

If there an other ways?

What is the load/outdoor equipment?
How close to the building?
Does the Wifi need to be outside?

Is he just after a socket that can be switched remotely?

Any of those Quinetic thingies fit the bill?

It needs to go outside, so a nice IP rating is needed.
Or do you mean get a standard outside socket and put the Quinetic controller inside?

You can get smart/wifi controlled relays although you'd possibly need to add a fuse if removing the plug from the load

Quinetic plug -in controller, put it in a nice weatherproof box

i've used a couple of these for various applications---- outside lights,pond pums etc. no reason not to fit in back of IP65 socket

Aren't these only suitable for lights, or am I reading it wrong?

could use to switch the socket using a relay.
