Quick Connectors & Installation
Using the Stake Installation Tool
Save these instructions!
Quick Connects are a fast and easy method for connecting P. M. Lighting
landscape lighting luminaires to the Main Supply Cable running to the
power transformer. These connectors will work on both 14 gauge and 12
gauge cable for home runs. Simply position the cable between the 2 halves
of the Quick Connects as shown and squeeze the parts together tightly to
pierce both wires with the metal conductors. The teeth on the ratchet
devices lock the pierced terminals into place to securely hold the connection
over time.
To install or replace Quick Connects,
1.
Cut the old Quick Connect parts from the wires (if replacing old ones)
and strip the end of the wires to approximately ½” in length.
2.
Use the wire nuts included in the replacement kit to connect each side of
the Quick Connect to the 18 gauge wire on the luminaire.
3.
Attach and secure the new Quick Connect as outlined above.

LEFT PICTURE: Slide the Stake Installation Tool over the top of the
copper stake until it bottoms out in the hole. When installing the
ground stakes for bullet lights, make sure the wires are carefully tucked
inside the stake to avoid cutting or damaging the cable.
RIGHT PICTURE:
Position the stake in the
location desired and
hammer the stake
directly into the ground
approximately 6 inches,
being careful to keep the
stake in an upright and
straight position.
Use a dead blow mallet
to minimize the risk of
damaging the light
socket in power stakes.
