5. Instal·lació
Segueix aquests passos per a una instal·lació correcta del transformador de jardí:
- Trieu una ubicació: Select a suitable outdoor location for mounting the transformer. It should be mounted on a vertical surface, such as a wall or post, between 12 inches (0.3m) and 48 inches (1.2m) from the ground. Ensure the location allows for easy access to the power outlet and the low voltagcablejat.
- Muntar el transformador: Use appropriate screws (not included) to securely mount the transformer through its built-in hanging holes.
- Connect Low Voltage Cables: Connect the positive and negative wires from your 12V landscape lights to the terminal blocks on the transformer. Ensure a secure connection for each wire. The transformer provides two terminal output ends; choose one to connect your lights.
- Connect Photocell Sensor: Plug the photocell sensor into its designated port on the transformer. Position the sensor where it can accurately detect ambient light (dusk/dawn) without being obstructed or exposed to direct artificial light sources at night.
- Connectar-se a l'alimentació: Un cop tot baix volumtage connections are made and secured, plug the transformer's 3.3ft SJTW18AWG3/C power cord into a standard 120V AC outdoor-rated electrical outlet.
