LOW-VOLTAGE LIGHTING

Low-Voltage Landscape Lighting is a simple improvement that can make a huge difference in the safety and security of your home as well as how it looks after dusk. Landscape Lighting is usually installed along walkways, steps, and driveways, pointing up at trees, walls, and fences. The typical low-voltage lighting system requires just three components: a transformer, low-voltage electrical cable, and the fixtures. Landscape lighting is easy to install even if you've never done any electrical wiring.
A transformer is used to step down the 120-volt house current to just 12 volts. It should be plugged into a GFCI-protected outdoor electrical outlet. This outlet should be fitted with a “while-in-use” cover, which is an oversized plastic box that closes over and around the power cord. The transformer needs to have enough capacity to support the cumulative wattage of the lights in the system plus about 1 watt for each 10 feet in the total length of the run of lights. Between fixtures, the cable is normally buried in a shallow trench about 3-6 inches deep.
Unlike the landscape lighting of old, today’s fixtures come in a wide range of shapes and colors. As long as you have a nearby outlet, you’ll be able to give your home and yard a welcoming glow when the sun goes down. With the new solar LED techology getting more affordable, and lighting fixtures coming out in new and exciting styles, not have to pay for the power to run these fixtures is making them more attactive all the time as our energy rates continue to climb.
