Building An Outdoor Bar! INSANE BACKYARD Pt 14

What happens here

Prepare to wire the lights installed underneath the bar top. Use wire strippers to carefully strip the insulation from the two leads coming from the light fixture and from the wires leading to the transformer. Once stripped, use waterproof silicone connectors to splice the lead wires. Insert one lead from the fixture into each side of the connector, twist tightly, and gently tug to ensure a secure connection. This ensures a durable and weather-resistant electrical connection for the outdoor lighting.

Goal: Wire and connect the lights under the bar for illumination
