first run electric cable to garage,10-3 with ground is best,you will have to put at least a 30 amp box in garage more if running 220. if just lights and power tools on 110 then you will be fine!! in box connect red wire to proper lug in box and black wire to proper lug. run 14-2 to lghts!! you can use 12-2 also it is a heavier cable!! at house breaker box run the 10-3 cable to its own breaker in box,at least a 20amp breaker!! red and black wires go to breaker and white goes to neutral bar connect ground to ground bar or neutral bar also!! use a double pole breaker in main box.
