How far away are the outbuildings?

Am I right in thinking you have 2 buildings, and want a double socket in each?

I think he means socket outlets spread around the garden.

Maybe something like a Caravan outlet would be suitable, with earth spike and an underground armoured supply. Not a DIY job and is expensive.

But in a big garden there is a lot to be said for petrol-powered mower, strimmer, hedger etc. As well as avoiding the trailing leads, they are generally more powerful and better made (and of course more expensive than throw-away electric tools)
