"Hi

The garden building will require a consumer unit.

The external supply should be connected to that consumer unit.

Any circuits in the garden building should be run from that consumer unit.

Let me know if I can be of any further assistance.

"There needs to be a consumer unit within the garden room, with a feed from an external 32A commando socket. The heater and spots will be wired back to this.
The show ground will provide you with a 32A commando socket so you may need to then acquire a 32A lead with a plug on each end.
You simply then plug the cable in to each socket. Et voila. Done ☑️"

""Hi

I hope you're well.

The garden building will require it own consumer unit.

The external supply should be connected to that.

Any circuits in the garden building should be run from that consumer unit and should have rcd protection.

Let me know if you need anything else"
