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.

    Have you done any testing, or inspection? How low level is the lighting? Would the customers budget stretch to one of these:

    Yes inspection carried out. The underground choc block taped joints at the three light positions are horrible. A return visit is necessary. The poundland jobbies are no good in the winter with limited light levels.
