Outside light junction box

If the cable type coming from the fabric of the building is PVC Twin and Earth I would use an IP rated junction box as its not rated for outdoor use. I would then use an outdoor rated flexible cable from the junction box or encase the cable with a Plastic flexible conduit depending on the glanding opportunity's on the fitting. Always Happy to give advice but remember electrical work isn't easy and if you are still not sure, contact a local qualified electrician. Reply: This is how it’s generally done, you can have an internal junction box with Maintenance free connectors with the correct external rated cable going to the outside light fitting. The junction box is generally used to joint the cable from the inside of the building to a the correct type on the outside. And the junction box is located where it can be easily accessed should the cable or light need to be changed in the future. With electrical work there is generally more than one way to do things which depends on the installers preference which could be based on future use, maintainability or aesthetic’s.
