Hello and good evening everyone,
I wanted to ask the group about the electrical connections you have installed or planned for the front yard area and those facing the garden.
For the front yard, I am currently considering only a single switchable power line for lighting, such as illuminated flower beds and/or pathway lighting. On the other side of the house, facing the garden, I am thinking of installing a switchable power line for lighting as well as a separate power line with a higher capacity to supply a potential garden shed, where several devices (refrigerator, TV, or whatever) might be connected. Additionally, there would be outdoor outlets directly on the house wall facing the garden—but how many would be sensible?
How have you set this up?

Yes, you can never have too many outlets outside.
In the carport, we have:
4x 220V outlets and 1x 32A three-phase outlet.
In the tool shed, outlets for various purposes.
On the terrace, 2x 220V outlets.
In the garden, 5x 2.5mm² cables for lights, irrigation system, and so on.
At the front gate/entrance, also 5x 2.5mm² cables for gate control, lights, etc. I'm not an expert... what are the 4x 220V and 1x 32A used for exactly?
Thanks!
