I would like to put a fluorescent light above my workbench in the garage (unheated). Are all fluorescent lights sensitive to the cold? I am in Wisconsin and there may be times when I would like to have some extra light in the middle of winter. I thought a fluorescent fixture would be the best way to go but I don't know what temperature range the lights will be able to operate. Any insight or suggestions are appreciated. thanks

My brother is having a shed built in the corner of his yard and would like to run power out to it. It would obviously be preferable to run the lines underground. Here are the specifics as I understand them. He'd like to have a light fixture and an electric outlet. The outlet would be for a blower-vac in the spring-summer, and a battery-tender in the winter. I believe the shed will be about 50-75 feet directly from the house. (about 100 ft if you went 90 degrees to the fence line and then down to the shed) What size wire will he need to run? What kind of conduit should be used? Does code require a certain buried depth?
