[QUOTE="Geoff1946, post: 508534, member: 28452"] To offer a few of comments: Keep all outdoor circuits separate to the house so that outdoor faults/trips don't affect your house. There is no practical limit, (except cost), to how many sockets, etc, but start from the other end and think what appliances you may actually use. Depending on the layout of your out-buildings, a sub main from the house to one of the out-buildings and a consumer unit there is a likely solution. Feeder cable probably SWA, rather than conduit. Again no practical limit to how many led lights. You get a lot of light for your watt with leds.! Ornamental lighting around the garden, I would advise low voltage "plug & play" as safest, reliable, and versatile to your garden changes. I suggest you firstly think through what equipment you really want to have and then approach a couple of electricians for quotes. [/QUOTE]
