Advantages of a Low Voltage Outdoor Lighting System:

Low voltage outdoor lighting systems are generally more economical, aesthetic, and safe as compared to “high voltage” systems. A typical “low voltage” outdoor lighting system is powered by one or more “transformers” that convert “line voltage” of 115-120 volts to a system of cabling that provide each outdoor fixture with approximately 12 volts. If disrupted or damaged, a low voltage system is generally less of a safety issue than a compromised high voltage system. This may be an important consideration for families with children and pets. With the assistance of an experienced lighting professional, almost any “look” for an outdoor lighting application can be accomplished. Low voltage systems typically require less disruptive installation methods than high voltage systems and can be designed with flexibility, expansion, and serviceability in mind.
