Has anyone managed to find an outdoor smart plug that works with google home with an NZ/AU plug? I have a patio area that's covered but it's still outside so hesitant to use a standard smart plug for automation, I could only find one through dicksmith but they are out of stock still.

Could you use a Shelly product in the plug?

What about something at the distribution board, (rather than at the plug).  Only works if that outdoor plug has it's own circuit breaker.

I got a box from bunnings that had space in it for a powerstrip and some seals for all the cables to go in and out of it. Has my outside smartplugs and power supplys for lights in it.
