Plug it in, plug it in........

 

In a past blog I had removed an old lamp post, (of which I plan to replace)but the removal let some exposed wiring. For the time being ill just have to settle for an outdoor outlet.

So I swung by the local hardware store and picked up an outdoor outlet kit, a 90degree section of piping and a couple connectors. I dug out a scap peice of angle iron in which to use as a stake and something to mount the outlet box too.

The angle iron was drove into the ground, the outlet box was mounted and the protective piping attached. Next the existing wireing was threaded through and the outlet wired and ready for juice. This outlet will come in handy for those Xmas lights.
