12 volt outside light recommendations.

Former Community Member

Hi all. I am in the process of turning my front garden into a driveway. Now on the side of this drive way is a brick wall where I want to put 3 x 12 volt wall lights. I have excavated the ground and dug a trench and put some 20mm conduit for now. What I want to know is are there outside lights that don't come pre wired? I don't want to have any junction boxes on the wall or buried in the ground. Can the electrician wire it with loop in loop out so the only connections are at the light fitting itself so no connections underground etc.


I hope that makes sense.

    Far less complicated with mains lights.  Transformer in a loft seems like a long cable run to me.  Also pretty much all external 12v i have seen are pre wired.  Conduit will fill up with water if it's in the ground unless you are very careful. I wouldn't recommend it.
