Hub-style wiring connections
Pierce-point connectors are the #1 reason landscape lighting in 61030 fails by year three. We use waterproof hub connections on every run.
Right-sized transformers
We size every transformer for 70% load. That leaves headroom for voltage drop, future expansion, and the LED inrush current most installers ignore.
