All wet areas need to be protected by a safety switch, however weatherproof light switches can further reduce the risk of electrocution. Weatherproof light switches are usually designed for outdoors and may consist of a rubber seal either behind the switch button protecting the internal wiring or covering the switch button. Therefore, wet fingers pressing the switch are at less risk. Weatherproof enclosures or covers for switches and general power outlets (GPOs) are also an option. There are Australian Standard safety requirements for the location of GPOs and light switches in wet areas.
