Voltage Light
Landscape Lighting Design Made Simple
Landscape lighting comes in many forms, including path lights, deck lights, floodlights, and patio lanterns, and it brings beauty and security to any home. Low voltage lighting, though, is usually a more affordable option than high voltage lighting. Low voltage lights make use of a transformer which reduces the 120 volt house or business current to 12 volts. Some of the advantages of low voltage lights are as follows:
- Security and Better Visibility: Low voltage lights that are strategically placed provide even illumination rather than dark shadows that are created by high voltage lights. Although light does not prevent crime, it can improve nighttime security for your home or business.
- Safety: Residents and visitors can navigate around your property more safely when sidewalks and entrances are illuminated by landscape lights and drivers are not blinded by the glare of high voltage lighting.
- Recreational Usage: You can enjoy your deck or other recreational area at night when you properly light them to provide a comfortable environment.
- Property Value: Landscape lights help to improve the appearance of your property at night by effectively highlighting the exterior. This serves to raise the property's value and improve the community.
- Economy: Low voltage lighting uses about a third of the power required for high voltage lighting, and when your property is properly lit, you achieve an energy efficient design. This in turn reduces your long-term operating costs.
Low voltage lights are usually installed along walkways, pathways, driveways, entrances, and steps. Low voltage lights can also be placed inside wells and ponds, and pointed up at trees, fences, and walls. The typical low voltage lighting system is composed of three items: a transformer, a low voltage electrical cable, and lighting fixtures. Each transformer should be plugged into a GFCI-protected outdoor outlet with a "while-in-use" cover that closes over and around the power cord.
Installing low voltage landscape lighting is much simpler than expected, and many home owners find that they can exercise their creativity when planning where to install the light fixtures. No matter where the lights are placed, though, you can feel confident that the choice of low voltage lighting offers the best opportunities in landscape lighting options.

How can I convert the "innards" of a standard light to use with my low voltage outdoor system?
I want to use a standard outdoor post light but change the socket and wires so that I can connect it to my low voltage circuit and use a 10-25 w low voltage bulb. BTW, I'm replacing a fixture that is too old and decrepit to fix. It used a double pin bayonet type bulb.
I am pretty sure that you can buy the "head" for a post mount light that is used with low voltage. Check that out and if you want to keep your same head, you just use the innards from the new head.
Your existing wires might work, but I would rather use new wire. You don't have to trench it down, it only needs to be covered. You can always go along the sidewalk edge to the transformer.
