A transformer that has the ability to accommodate several voltages.

A parallel run allows all fixtures to draw current independently of the other fixtures. When one light goes out, the others will stay on.

A measure of a fixture’s actual light output at various distances.

A power supply, otherwise known as a transformer, is generally used with low voltage lighting to “transform” or reduce line voltage to 12 volts. Without a transformer, the lamps would be subjected to excess voltage and would burn out immediately.

Electrical pressure on the wire, impairing the flow of electricity.

To join together two or more wires by interweaving and applying a waterproof connection.

A “T” consists of running a low voltage cable to a centralized zone, then running other cables off the “T” to fixtures. It equalizes voltage and removes the error of over exposure at the first lamp.

A transformer, otherwise known as a power supply, is generally used with low voltage lighting to “transform” or reduce line voltage to 12 volts. Without a transformer, the lamps would be subjected to excess voltage and would burn out immediately.

Measures the pressure through a wire.

The degree in which voltage is diminished, affecting lamp performance.
