Install and Connect Up-Light Fixtures

A little bit of a revolutionary concept 💡 #outdoorlighting #paverpatio
What happens here
Once the holes are prepared and electrical wiring is run, the up-light fixtures can be installed. The video demonstrates inserting circular, flush-mounted up lights directly into the pre-drilled holes in the stone wall caps. Each light should fit snugly within its opening. After positioning, the lights are connected to the low-voltage wiring that has been routed through the stone cap or adjacent structures. This step ensures that the lights are securely seated and properly wired for operation, ready to cast light upwards onto the stone columns. The video shows multiple lights installed in various caps around the base of a column.
Goal: Securely install and connect up lights into the prepared stone openings.
