E.L.V. Garden Bollards.

A customer has some underground S.W.A. cable supplying three low level garden lights. The installation is amateurish and now keeps tripping off an R.C.D. He does not want the garden dug up to replace the cable with bad underground joints at the lights. I was wondering if E.L.V. lights could be used at say 12 or 24 Volts via an isolating transformer. Does anyone know of a suitable type of light please? That way the S.W.A could be reused.

  • With modern LED lamps I very much doubt that extra current will be a problem. A 12 volt, 6 watt LED lamp is bright enough for most such applications and is only about 1.5 amps in total for three such. Half that at 24 volts of course.
