Remove transformer cover by loosening the two Phillips 
screws on the side of the transformer.

Install low voltage wires from the transformer to the 
electrical power feed box to which the power feed canopy 
will be attached. For best performance, use the wire size 
from the voltage drop chart below.

Connect the 12 Volt Low Voltage Wires

NOTE:

 

Other wire sizes that comply with electrical code 

can be used, but may result in an increased voltage drop 
and reduced lamp intensity.

NOTE:

 

The THHN wire sizes are for 3% drop in voltage 

based on 300 watt loads. Lengths are the distance from 
the transformer to the system power feed connector 
(Dimension      ).

Check The System

After installing the entire low voltage system, if the lamps 
have low intensity, then measure the voltage at the fixture 
closest to the power feed contacts with a voltmeter. The 
system must be at least 80% loaded and the voltmeter 
should read between 11V - 12V ~AC. If the voltage does 
not fall in this range, call Wilmette Lighting "Technical 
Support" at 847-410-4606.

Operate the system for five minutes. On the low voltage 
side, all electrical connection spots should be cool to the 
touch. If a connection is hot to the touch, retighten the 
connection and check to ensure that the temperature 
decreases.

Replace the transformer cover and tighten the two Phillips 
screws on the sides of the transformer.
