I have built a bar at the top of my garden in it there is 4 sockets and 2 lights running off the one switch I have done it as a radial circuit I was going to get my mains cable into the house to my main board on its own braker and was going to put a 2 way consumer unit for my lights and sockets but was told I don't need one someone mentioned a switch box just to have my mains cable,socket cable and light cable coming from it with an on off switch as it's will be protected from the many rcd board in my house if someone could help me that would be great and maybe send me a link of what I need to buy for in the shed to connect my 3 main cables to there will be a fridge and a tv up there thanks

Whoah! theres no need to shout mate. Don't worry about this lot it's a bit like passing a car with several jack russells in barking frantically away, they can't hurt you though.

I'm a plaster by trade I thought this was a forum for help I have done the work of running all the cables putting my sockets on and lights all I need is a bit of advice ain't going to pay some electrician £100 - £200 to come and tell me which one of the 2 things I need to purchase thanks for your help

and i'm not going to pay a plasterer £100 - £200 to skim my new kitchen. i'll just chuck some mud on the walls myself.

before splashing out on that, spend £700 on a MFT so you can test your work, pay your local building control £300, or invest in an electrician for a lot less.
