Connect to Power Source and Verify Operation

Pretty magical i'd say... 🧐
What happens here
After all individual light fixtures are connected, the entire low-voltage wiring system is connected to a landscape lighting transformer. This transformer converts standard household electricity (120V AC) to a safe low-voltage (typically 12V AC) power suitable for the lights. The installer states, 'Got 'em all hooked up,' indicating this connection is complete. The transformer should then be plugged into an outdoor Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protected electrical outlet. The final part of this step involves observing the installed lighting system after dark to verify that all lights are functioning correctly and to assess the overall aesthetic impact and illumination quality.
Goal: Power the lighting system and assess its nighttime appearance
Tools and materials
- Outdoor GFCI-protected electrical outlet — Providing a safe and compliant power source for the transformer
- Screwdriver — Securing wires to the transformer terminals, if required
