Spider Layout
The spider potentially requires easy access to the underside
of a deck and thus is more likely in new installations.
The transformer provided should not deliver more than 80%
of 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 watts.
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.
