For decks with limited access to underside of deck.

The transformer provided should not deliver more than 80%

of the its rated wattage. Calculate the total wattage of your

layout using the following values. Villa Post Cap draws 0.53

watts, Island Post Cap draws 2.2,

Example 1: A maximum of 12 lighted Island Post Caps can

be powered using a 35 watt transformer. 35 watts x 80% =

28 watts. 28 watts ÷ 2.2 watts per cap = 12.72 or 12 caps.

Example 2: A maximum of 52 lighted Villa Post Caps can

be powered using a 35 watt transformer. 35 watts x 80% =

28 watts. 28 watts ÷ 0.53 watts per cap = 52.83 or 52 caps.

Requirement: Each powered 12 ga. wire from the

transformer can drive a maximum of (10) lighted Post Caps.
