A homeowner would like me to install a fluorescent light fixture and a couple 120V receptacles in his new wooden Tuff Shed. He already has an existing Tuff Shed, which somebody previously installed a couple receps into, and he (homeowner) would like me to get the power for the second shed from the first shed.

There is at least one violation with the first shed, which is easily resolved; there is no disconnect at the shed. However, there is a second situation which I don't know is okay or not. Power to the first shed is obtained from an outside recep on the house. A weather proof extension box was installed, and PVC conduit run to the first shed. Does the first shed need it's own circuit from the panel, or is it okay to share another circuit from the house? If it needs it's own circuit, can the second shed use the same circuit as the first shed, or does each shed need their own circuit from the main panel?

I apologize if this seems simple to others, but I've actually never ran power to a remote building, where I didn't install a sub panel. I do however know that I will not need grounding electrodes at each shed, as per the Exception to 250.32(A).
