Hot tub in a garden next to a wooden summer house.
I need to add an isolator.
Ideally it would go on the side of the summer house as the CU is just inside but that puts it closer than 2M of hot tub (isolator is IP65)

Just had the garden paved and a summer house installed and now need some electrics in there. Nothing fancy, just enough for a socket to put something like a CD player, a security light (150w) and to run the christmas lights from when it's that time of the year.
I had some 25mm MDPE pipe run...
