BASIC SYSTEM DESIGN STEPS: 

 

LED landscape lighting 

is quite easy to install and is much easier than traditional halogen systems. 

LED lighting allows the running of cables with less complications of the dreaded “voltage drop” that 

occurs more readily with halogen systems and other higher wattage incandescent systems. Just 

follow these four easy steps for a successful installation.

 

 

A.

 

Determine the location of the power transformer before installation 

and make sure a suitable 115/120VAC 

covered GFCI outlet marked “WET LOCATION” is within reach of the transformer power cord. Attach and 

secure transformer to the wall a minimum of 12 inches above ground using screws and anchors (if needed). 

Mounting screws are provided for your convenience.

 

B.

 

Lay out the 14/2 gauge MAIN SUPPLY CABLE according to the 

Easy Design Guide

 on the next page, paying 

close attention to where your fixtures are located and distances to determine the length of cable needed.

 

C.

 

Install each luminaire according to the individual instruction sheets, attach each luminaire to 

the Main 

Supply Cable using the attached easy connectors

, and bury loose cable as desired (6 inches deep or less).

 

D.

 

Plug 

Power Transformer

 into the 

Timer with Photocell

, plug the timer into the GFCI outlet, and turn the 

Timer dial to the desired setting for Dusk/Dawn, or Dusk On/ Off in 2, 4, 6, or 8 hours.
