What cable for outside security light?

[happypeter]

Hi,

I'm planning on a new security light, the new cable would have to run exposed for about 2 meters outside. Is there a specific weather poof type cable I need to use?

thanks

Many LED lights come with cable attached, the better ones with a couple of metres

Use a ip rated box

Which IP rating would you suggest ?
