your plans are as clear as mud. By the sound of it, you haven't a clue what your power requirements are and you dont know a right lot about circuit design either . . .

for starters, 6mm˛ will have trouble fitting into a socket, never mind a light. And outdoor cable runs must be protected, normally by running armoured cable and terminating in appropriate glands.

do you know about part p? http://www.diynot.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=245116#245116 (see ban-all-shed's long post)

your electrician will better advise on circuit design.

"I wanna PUT" >> "I want to put" or "I would like to put"

txt tlk confuses ppl on ere, esp. when u r trynna tell us impt detls bout ure install. AND SHOUTING IS RUDE.

Lynda, Crafty is totally correct, the wiring has to be mechanically protected and the circuit must be protected by an RCD. Unless you are competent in electrical installing it`s best to get a professional in.
