Are you talking about connecting 'flex' (as in, the floppy stuff
which
has a plug at one end and a table lamp or telly at the other) to
'cable'
(as in, the stiff stuff which is fixed down and normally hidden under
floors/ceilings etc)?

If so, you'd better provide more details of what exactly you want to
power up with this arrangement.

If not - please clarify!

Apologies for any confusion. No the twin stuff I talk of carries 12v
and is what came with garden lighting I bought from B&Q. It's simply
two live wires, each individually wrapped in plastic and stuck side by
side together so the whole bit of wire is flatish. But I don't want to
use that wire as I only got 15m of the stuff. Instead I want to use
the twin and earth that's already circulated around my garden.

The lights have a small length of the same twin/flatish cable that
would normally connect to the said 15 ring that came with the lights,
but I want instead to connect this to the twin and earth.
