Blagdon 5 Way Electrical Switch Box

If your pond runs multiple pieces of equipment – pump, UV-C, air pump, lighting and a waterfall pump – you need safe, central control. The Blagdon 5 Way Electrical Switch Box (Mk 2) gives you five individually switched outlets in one weatherproof pond-side unit.

Updated to the Mk 2 version with a LED indicator system, so you can see instantly what’s powered on.

Why it’s a good fit

• Five individually switched outlets – full control over each item
• LED power indicators (Mk 2) – clear visual check, even in low light
• Designed for pond and garden electrical use
• Keeps cables tidy and organised at the pond edge

Where it fits in your system

Typical larger pond setup:

Pump → Filter → UV-C → Return
Air pump → Air stones
Lighting → Feature or pond edge
Waterfall or blade pump → Feature return

With five switches, you can:

• Turn off the UV-C for lamp changes
• Isolate circulation during maintenance
• Control air independently
• Switch lighting separately
• Shut down a feature pump when needed

No unplugging. No trailing extension leads.

Installation notes

• Mount vertically on a solid wall or post
• Install above ground level to reduce splash exposure
• Create a drip loop in every cable to stop water tracking into the housing

Safety first

• Always use an outdoor-rated RCD-protected supply
• Switch off and unplug before servicing equipment
• Keep the unit clear of standing water

If you’re running a fully equipped pond, this keeps power organised, controlled and easy to manage.
