Outdoor, i have a moth trap about 100m from my house,it is powered from a nearby shed ,both are in direct view of my house,it would be so much easier to operate if there was some kind of remote controlled socket which i could use from my house,thanks ,Peter.

A photocell has to be the answer as moths work the same hours. simples.

Remote sockets with 100m range are available but are expensive (can't remember the makes off hand), you would probably be better off (if that is the only power consumption) simply having a switch in the house for the power supply out to the trap. i.e. switch the supply cable as it leaves the house.

i think the time clock would be best . You buy time fused spurs : 24 Hour Supply Master - FST11A

other than that , switch supply cable to the shed its self ( switch in home )
