[EliMarie]

Determining the correct wire gauge for your landscape lighting system, such as the AMP Lighting ATR-150-PS-SS, is essential for optimal performance and safety. The necessary gauge depends on the distance between your transformer and the light fixtures, as well as the transformer's output capacity.

Here are the recommended wire gauges based on the distance for different transformer output capacities:

For a 150W output transformer:

• 5 ft distance: 2#6AWG
• 30 ft distance: 2#8AWG
• 60 ft distance: 2#10AWG
• 90 ft distance: 2#12AWG
• 120 ft distance: 2#14AWG
• 150 ft distance: 2#14AWG
• 180 ft distance: 2#14AWG
• 210 ft distance: 2#14AWG
• 240 ft distance: 2#14AWG

For a 300W output transformer:

• 5 ft distance: 2#6AWG
• 10 ft distance: 2#8AWG
• 20 ft distance: 2#10AWG
• 30 ft distance: 2#12AWG
• 40 ft distance: 2#12AWG
• 50 ft distance: 2#12AWG
• 60 ft distance: 2#12AWG
• 70 ft distance: 2#12AWG
• 80 ft distance: 2#12AWG
• 90 ft distance: 2#12AWG
• 100 ft distance: 2#12AWG
• 110 ft distance: 2#12AWG

Always adhere to these guidelines to ensure your AMP Lighting landscape lighting system functions correctly and safely.
