If the landscape wire is too long, cut it with a cable cutter. The landscape wire should be protected by routing it close to proximity of the light fixture or next to a building, deck or fence. Use cable suitable for low voltage landscape lighting. See chart page 9 for recommended cable gauges. For uniform brightness and longer LED life, attach first fixture at least 10 feet from power pack
