TRANSFORMERS
Single transformer: When using one transformer, center the transformer on
the wattage load. Minimize all cable runs to reduce voltage drop.
Multiple transformers: When using multiple transformers, spread the load
evenly across all transformers. Avoid voltage drop by installing the
transformers as close to the fixtures as possible.
Please read and keep all safety and use instructions. If you have questions, contact your local distributor or visit the online support section at https://www.fxl.com/support.

LOW VOLTAGE CABLE SHALL:
- Be protected by routing in close proximity to the luminaire or fitting, or next to a building structure such as a house or deck.
- Not be buried except for a maximum 6″ (152 mm) in order to connect to the main low voltage cable.
- Have the length cut off so that it is connected to a connector within 6″ (152 mm) from a building structure, a luminaire, or fitting.
