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. |
