Switching between garden feeds

[Dave64]

Hi experts, I hope you can help me, I have a single FCU in my conservatory, which feeds a connection box on the outside wall.
I now want to install in my garden, a single bulb lamp post thing (given by a dear friend as a gift), and also a waterfall pump.
So my question is, can I switch between the light and pump in some way from the same FCU?

I'm happy that the light and pump wont ever need to be on at the same time (although, if that is possible?). I just don't really want to add boxes in the conservatory as it's just been plastered.

Thanks in advance.

Yes it is possible through an on/off/on switch like this but probably not a DIY job. The spur may have to stay in situ depending on what it is connected from.

It's unlikely tht a small domestic garden pump and a single lamp will come anywhere near close to overloading even the smallest (3A) fused spur that you're likely to have. Tiny wifi switch modules are available that could be used to switch both, using an app on your phone.
