  • Ok - thanks for this. I'll live with an extension for now, and get an electrician in when we have some work done in a couple of months.

    You sound like you know what you're talking about. Given a socket in the garden (in a waterproof box), is it possible to run a cable off that to the shed and then have a little fuse box inside the shed on the end of that cable. The alternative would be I guess to run a cable from the main fuse box to the shed, but that would be much trickier to route.

  • I'm looking at running an armoured cable to the back of the garden too - for which I'll be getting a sparky - and have an external socket.

    I seem to recall reading that I can't have a cable run off a spur - hopefully, I can have the cable run through the same path as the external socket though.
