I'm confused now. Don't most people use orange cables to plug in their
lawnmowers, strimmers etc? I already have an external socket on the
wall. It's to run a fridge freezer in the shed. If I can plug this
extension into the external socket, fit a conduit and bury the cable
myself that would be the ideal solution as it's simplest... what do you
think?

You are breaking the law and may kill somebody. An orange cable doesn't have an
earth wire.
Some do, some don't. My orange cable to my caravan definitely has an
earth wire.

It may be more complicated but is it better?
