    Outdoor eletrical wiring (switches, control center)
    I was curious if anyone knows of a "control center" type device for outside wireing... I've wired up quite a few indoors, but I know those indoor ones are NOT for outdoors because they are not water tight and most don't even have covers for the switches.

    Basically what I need is an outdoor box that can hold 8 switches + a gfi outlet. If anyone can direct me to a site that sells them or what they are called (part number would be great) I'd really appreciate it :)...

    Thanks

    Don't know"Control Center" or communication format.
    You could use X10, or PLC(power line carrier)type control.

    X10 PRO Online is a good site, then click "Landscape Lighting Applications"
    Is shows 4 button light control, and you can dim.
    2 Gang box would be 8 switches. You don't have to home run wires.
    Change out existing switches, You can add receiver, allows Key fob of your
    PLC Devices. They have a 16 cannel transmitter and can change house codes, allowing
    Control of numerous lights, pumps, You can add transponder for phone control.
