6. Make your connections at each fixture with the connection method provided. Be sure not to twist the copper wire before putting it into the wire nut, as the purpose of the wire nut is to do that automatically. If you do twist it before putting it into the connector you run the risk of providing a possible hazardous connection point that will generate heat and effect the potential of your lighting system.
7. Attach all the wiring at the hub locations and visually inspect and tug lightly on each connection point in the hub to ensure a proper and solid connection is made.
8. Now that you have good solid connections and your fixtures have the proper lubricants to ensure longevity of the sockets and connection points you are now ready to hook the main runs up to the transformer. The transformer should have various Taps or lugs to connect your cables to. Labeled on each lug should be either 11.5 volt, 12.5 volt or 13.5 volt. The purpose of these different voltages is dependant upon two factors. The first is length of your main wire run and the second is the amount of load on that run or the amount of wattage.
Tip: The basic theory is that the longer the run and the more fixtures on that run the more power you will need to supply the allowable voltage for proper lamp performance.
