I put an LED striplight along the ridge line and then halfway down the front slope of the ceiling I put a pendant fixing in above the window corner.
I ran a radial from the garage CU round to three double sockets, one at floor height just below the CU, next to the door for operating power tools outside, on the back wall above my workbench, and at floor level over by the window corner for the easy-chair/laptop area.
Next I routed cable from the house CU all the way to the shed.this involved running 4mm2 unarmoured cable from the CU down to the skirting board, through the wall into the lounge, along the skirting behind the TV unit and to the front wall of the house. Then I drilled a 20mm hole out of the front wall of the house at a slightly downward/outward and and lined this with PVC conduit.
On the outside of the hole I put a watertight junction box and ran my 4mm2 armoured cable into this. This then went straight up the front wall of the house to first floor level, around the side, down again and then all the way down the fence line to the shed. Learning how to gland the armoured cable into the junction box was particularly fun!
