Troubleshooting tips

The lighting does not switch on with any of the programs.
Check that the transformer is correctly connected. If so, check the voltage
at the electric socket (you can do this using a voltage tester). Check
that the low-voltage cable is correctly wired to the transformer.
Only a few lamps switch on.
Check that the contacts of the fixture's Easy-Lock have correctly pierced the
insulation of the cable. Check whether the fixture is properly attached and that it
is not defective.
Options for laying 12 V cable
There are two types of cable plans or methods of laying cables: linear and split.
If you have made a lighting plan then making the wiring diagram is just a
question of drawing the cable onto the garden design. Follow an imaginary line
between the fixtures. Always test the circuit above ground before you bury the
cable underneath paving or soil.
Option 1: linear set-up
Roll out the cable from the transformer into the garden and lead it to the various
armatures. The cable can end anywhere and can have the following maximum
length:
14/2 cable up to 40 m
10/2 cable up to 80 m
Does your lighting plan include fixtures with total power greater than 35 VA?
Always use the 10/2 cable for these situations.
Option 2: split set-up
Roll out the cable from the transformer into the garden. Using the cable
connectors, make one or more branches that you lead to the various fixtures.
The maximum length of the branch or branches depends on the place where you
install the cable connectors or fixtures. For each branch first calculate the length
of cable from the transformer to the relevant cable connector. Subtract this
length from the maximum cable length for the cable you are using. The
remaining number of metres is the maximum length of the branch. You can
make several branches as long as this total does not exceed the maximum cable
length:
14/2 cable up to 40 m (Fig. 8A)
10/2 cable up to 80 m (Fig. 8B)
Does your lighting plan include fixtures with total power greater than 35 VA?
Always use the 10/2 cable for these situations.
