Elkhart Landscape Lighting will go above and beyond to make sure you know your landscape lighting options, and you fully understand what you are choosing. Your needs, expectations, and satisfaction are important to us. We will be with you every step of the way.
What is a low voltage lighting?Low voltage lighting is made to work with a transformer. The transformer lowers the line voltage down to the approved voltage of the lightbulb or fixture. Some low voltage lighting is integrated. This means the transformer is already built into the fixture. Our skilled professionals have plenty of knowledge with low voltage lighting to be able to safely, quickly, and properly install or repair your exterior lighting. For landscape lighting, we use a low voltage electrical cord that we will bury underground. The lower the gauge the thicker the electrical cord is. The cord will be running from the transformer to each light fixture. |
Is low voltage lighting AC or DC?If you are unaware of these terms, we are here to help. AC means alternating currents, and DC means direct current. Low voltage outdoor lighting shoots AC from the transformer and changes it to a lower voltage of DC that will make your lights shine. It may seem like a complicated process to those who are not experienced. If you are still a little unsure about it, our friendly customer service associates are always available to assist you with any questions you may have regarding our services.
Are all LED lights considered to be low voltage?LED lights are a little different than low voltage lights. LED lights have cool bulbs even when lit. They will also shine much brighter than a 50-watt low voltage bulb. A low voltage bulb can be around 300 degrees when it is lit up. That is extremely hot compared to the LED bulb. LED lights are 11watts. This makes them a little similar to low voltage lighting. Whether you are looking for LED or low voltage lighting, Elkhart Landscape Lighting will be able to handle any lighting requirements you have.
Is 12v considered to be low voltage?Yes. Outdoor lighting is typically put on 12v or 24v. Line voltage is what standard lighting is run from, which is from 120v to 280v. It is safer and more common for outdoor lighting to be low voltage. Even with low voltage, your outdoor lights will be dazzling and very bright on every occasion you have them on.
