Running the Landscape Wire (Not Included)
RUNNING THE LANDSCAPE WIRE:
• The included cable connectors are to be used only on low voltage power cable with SPT-2W or
equivalent 18, 16, 14, or 12 AWG cable.
• Do not use landscape cable smaller than listed in the chart below.
• The landscape wire should run from the power pack to each light fixture without being cut.
• Do not run the wire within 10 feet (3.05 meters) of a pool, spa, fountain, or other water source.
• The landscape wire should be protected by routing it close to the light fixture; near a building, deck,
fence, or other outdoor structure.
CONNECTING LIGHT FIXTURE TO LANDSCAPE
WIRE (Figures 1 & 2):
• The included cable connectors are to be used only on
low voltage power cable with SPT-2W or equivalent
18, 16, 14, or 12 AWG cable.
1. Open the Connector (Part E) that is attached to the
end of the Wire (Part D). See Figure
2. Align the landscape wire (not included) through the
Connector (Part E), allowing the contact pins (2) to
pierce the wire on both sides. Close the Connector
(Part E) to secure. See Figure
3. Determine the area where you would like to install the
light and insert the stake (Part C). Do not push the
fixture into the ground by the fixture head.
CAUTION: In clay or hard soil conditions, moisten the
ground with water before inserting the stake into
the ground to avoid any breakage.
ADJUSTING THE LIGHT FIXTURE:
• Before you bury the landscape cable underground, it
is recommended you adjust your light fixtures at night
to ensure you are happy with the position and lighting
effect.
BURY THE LANDSCAPE WIRE:
• The landscape wire can be buried under soil, grass,
or stone at a maximum depth of 6 inches (15.24 cm).

DETERMINING LIGHT FIXTURE LOCATION:
• To achieve consistent brightness and longer light
fixture life, install the first light fixture at least 10 feet
(3.05 meters) from the power pack.

• CABLE SELECTION: Use the chart to determine
the MINIMUM gauge cable to be used, depending
on the wattage of the power pack. Using larger
cable will ensure maximum light output.
