INSTALLATION INSTRUCTION
To ensure optimal performance and safety, it is
important to use our fixtures ONLY with a low
voltage landscape transformer. This transformer
reduces the voltage from 120V to 12V, making it safe
and suitable for outdoor use.
When installing the fixture(s), please follow these
instructions carefully:
1. Before installation, please ensure that the power is
turned off for your safety.
2.To establish a dependable and enduring electrical
connection between fixture wires and the main line
in outdoor or underground installations, it is
essential to select a suitable main cable connector
designed for direct burial. This connector should be
chosen
based
on
its
environmental
conditions,
corrosion, and provide robust insulation. By adhering
to industry standards and best practices, including
proper
wire
stripping
techniques, a reliable connection can be established,
ensuring optimal performance, safety, and longevity
of the system.
We recommend using WN12 waterproof wire nuts
(sold separately) for optimal connectivity.
3. Strip the insulation: Carefully strip approximately
3/4 inch (1.9 cm) of insulation from the ends of the
two wires you wish to connect. Ensure that the bare
metal ends are clean and free from any frayed
strands.
4. Align the wires: Hold the stripped ends of the two
wires together, aligning them neatly and ensuring
that no stray strands are crossing over.
5.Insert the aligned ends of the wires into the wire
nut, ensuring that they go all the way in. The bare
ends should be completely covered by the wire nut.
Twist the wire nut: Firmly twist the wire nut clockwise
onto the wires, ensuring a secure connection.
Continue twisting until the wire nut is tight and snug.
Test the connection: Gently tug on each wire to
ensure they are securely held by the wire nut.

The connection should be firm and not come loose.
Inspect the connection: Examine the wire nut connection
to ensure there are no exposed wires or loose strands. If
any issues are detected, remove the wire nut and repeat
the process from step 3.
Note: It's always recommended to follow local electrical
codes and regulations when performing any electrical
work. If you're uncertain or uncomfortable with electrical
tasks, it's advisable to consult a qualified electrician.
Safety should always be a top priority when working with
electrical connections.
6. For a secure and stable mounting, dig a small hole and
insert the spike into the ground, ensuring it is vertical and
firm.
7. Adjust the light angle.
8. Turn on the power.
We strongly recommend that the main cable from the
transformer be buried underground for safety reasons.
Additionally, please be sure to avoid exceeding the
maximum wattage on the fixture(s) to prevent any
damage or hazards.
