Any -mains- cable needs to be safely buried and have its own RCD, but the SB doesn't require mains power. The safe and easy option is to keep the PSU indoors and extend the 5VDC cable to the outside world. It's not only safe, but is a very small diameter and can be tucked away at the edge of paths, beds, lawns or hidden under gravel, mulch or other ground coverings. Just take care to use a heavy enough gauge of low voltage cable to ensure that not too much voltage is dropped over the extended run. Problem solved. Alternatively, batteries are another option.
