Ok - thanks all. I do the occasional project in there, so I want decent light, just don't want the hassle of get the whole shed properly wired in

just a normal fitting with a plug instead of wiring it into a switch etc

just put up a pendant with a big led bulb up plugged into the extension cord with an in-line switch.

I think this answers my question - sounds like I can just wire a standard bulb pendant onto a three pin plug rather than into a light switch on the wall.

Voltage (current?) is a total mystery to me - I wasn't sure if it would work / burn the shed down.

Yes that's all good just pop a 3 amp fuse into the plug instead of the13 amp that is likely to be in . Also if using power out side make sure your sockets in the house are rcd protected or just get a rcd plug
