8-2 Gauge Low Voltage Landscape Wire

LOW VOLTAGE CABLE LENGTH:
Voltage drop has an important impact on LVL systems. Voltage drop occurs along the length of cable and lamps at the end of run dimmer at the beginning. Voltage drop is a function of cable length, cable size, and total fixtures wattage. Voltage drop can be minimized in several different ways:

• Use heavier gauge cable
• Shorten cable length or runs
• Reduce wattage of each fixtures
• Use multiple transformers
• Reduce total number of fixtures on a run
