Lay Low-Voltage Cable and Trench

What happens here

Following your planned layout, begin laying out the low-voltage cable. For a neat and safe installation, it's recommended to bury the main cable. Dig shallow trenches (typically 4-6 inches deep) along your marked pathways and around planting beds using a trenching shovel or edger. Run the main low-voltage cable through these trenches, ensuring enough slack at each fixture location for easy connections later. If installing integrated step lights (as seen at 0:20-0:22), you may need to route cable through existing conduit or create small openings in the stair structure for the wiring.

Goal: Prepare the cable infrastructure for the lighting system by trenching and routing wires
