Sorry, this has probably been asked many times but cannot find anything specific in search. My power cable runs from the external garage wall to the obsy. Two gang sockets go inside a dry box then power out of there to the mount and computer.
My extension cable died. I have another on a reel, but it won't fit inside the dry box. Will it work inside one of these big plastic storage boxes? The dry box is IP55 but everything is taken down and packed away indoors at the end of the night, so only(!) concerns are dew/frost.
I have RCD protection but don't want to mess about with mains power. What do you think, can I get away with a big plastic box, or do I need to buy another cable with sockets that I can fit inside the dry box?
