So, is it acceptable to run normal cable in a more suitable
conduit as a

20m to
the shed?
Not along a fence, which isn't considered a permanent structure.
Along a wall is okay.
If you don't want to go underground, overhead cable on a catenary
wire is ok.
That's an engineering decision.
Some fences are better than others.
I have SWA routed along a solid (horse proof) post and rail fence.
It's lasted 20 years already and survived one bit of fence collapse
(the SWA helped it stay sort of in place while I replaced a couple of
posts).
Horses quite like nibbling away at horizontal fence rails and
tops of stable doors though :-(
They'll get quite a surprise when they nibble through the SWA.
It's some horse if it can do that! Standard anti crib on doors is just
thin galvanised sheet.
