Lecture - B2 Materials for Low Voltage Lighting Installations

Introduction Lighting designers and engineers have developed a vast array of lighting fixtures, lamps and other materials used for outdoor illumination. Different kinds of fixtures and lamps are better suited for different applications, and the styles of fixtures available make it possible to find something that fits with virtually any landscape theme or style. Choosing appropriate quality components for the rest of the lighting system (e.g. wire, transformers) will ensure that your installation provides trouble-free service for years to come. Learning Outcomes After completing this module, you will be able to: describe selected types of fixtures and their uses, describe other materials needed for a low voltage lighting installation, and complete a voltage drop calculation.
