The Kichler 15E60BK Economy Series 60-Watt Transformer is an economical choice for small jobs or single specialty piece applications. These transformers feature a black polymeric enclosure that resists corrosion. They have easy-connect terminal blocks, an on/off/auto switch, and an on/off switch. The 15E120BK model also includes an auto-resettable in-line primary overload protection. Both transformers have a thermal cut-off on the primary side and a thermal reset breaker on the secondary side.
The choice of transformer depends on the lighting job, size of the design layout, watts required, and length of runs. Voltage drop can cause a decrease in lamp brightness the farther they are from the transformer, so keeping runs as short as possible will minimize voltage drop and maximize light output. To calculate voltage drop, use the equation: A (length of wire) x B (total number of watts for all lamps on that wire run) = C (cable constant - determined by wire size). The cable constants for different wire gauges are as follows: 10 gauge-11920, 12 gauge-7500 (no more than 250 watts or 200 feet), 14 gauge-3500 (no more than 200 watts or 150 feet), 16 gauge-2200 (no more than 150 watts or 100 feet), and 18 gauge-1380.
Kichler Landscape Lighting Transformers feature epoxy encapsulation for greater protection and performance, secondary protection, and auto-reset circuit breakers. Quality, reliable power and ease of installation are what contractors want, while safety and performance are what homeowners need – and Kichler delivers on both fronts.
