Choosing the Right Power Cable and Transformer for Your Outdoor Lighting Setup
When installing a set of outdoor lights in your garden, it's important to select the appropriate power cable and transformer to ensure optimal performance and safety. Let's explore the key considerations:
Calculating the Total Wattage Suppose you have a setup with 4 spotlights (each 3W) and 2 path lights (each 5W). To determine the total wattage, simply add up the individual wattages: 4 x 3W + 2 x 5W = 22W.
Selecting the Power Cable The typical distance between two lights is around 6-8 feet, but you can adjust this as needed. Based on the total wattage of 22W and a distance of up to 60 feet, you should choose a 16AWG power cable that is 75-100 feet long.
Choosing the Transformer The transformer should be large enough to support the total fixture wattage, which in this case is 22W. It's recommended to choose a transformer that operates within 80% of its rated capacity for best efficiency. A 45W transformer would be suitable for this setup.
