Hi all,

I recently moved to an older property that had a run down garage. We had this removed and a summer house put up in its place. The old garage had a supply run from the main CU on a 15a circuit. It looks to be run in 2.5mm 2 core SWA. It’s roughly 15m in length from the house CU to the summer house.

The old garage had some sockets and lighting. Would this be enough to have a few sockets for a tv etc in the summer house along with lighting?

Would I need a separate garage CU in the summer house to run my circuits from that?
 
TL;DR
Old garage torn down, garage had power but unsure if sufficient for new usage in summer house.
