E.L.V. Garden Bollards.

Zoomup
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.

    You would certainly need to check the current condition on the underground joints. My preference would then be collingwood LED lights fed from a constant current transformer.

    You can work out where to place the transformer and a likely isolator.
