Hi If your garden lights have only 2 cores it could be they are 12v and that wire is coming from a transformer. I would hope so because if they are mains voltage and you have a 2 core cable then you will have no earth. Personally I would get this checked out by an electrician to determine the voltage of this cable before going any further Thanks Russ
