The LEDCO 18/2 Outdoor Landscaping Wire is constructed with high-quality copper conductors that ensure minimal voltage drop over extended runs, which is critical for maintaining consistent performance across all connected low-voltage LED landscape fixtures. The two-conductor configuration is specifically engineered for 12-volt landscape lighting systems, providing a clean and efficient electrical path from transformer to fixture. Proper wire gauge selection like this helps protect your LED drivers and extends the operational life of every light in your system.
The cable jacket is manufactured with UV-resistant and moisture-resistant insulation rated for direct burial, meaning it can be installed underground without the need for additional conduit in most residential applications. This weather-rated exterior wire is designed to endure harsh environmental conditions including prolonged sun exposure, heavy rainfall, soil moisture, and the extreme temperature fluctuations common across Canadian climates. Its durable construction helps prevent cracking, brittleness, and insulation breakdown over time.
This product is certified to Canadian electrical standards and is cUL approved, giving homeowners confidence that the wire meets rigorous safety and quality benchmarks required for outdoor electrical installations in Canada. When planning your landscape lighting layout, always ensure total wire length and connected load are appropriate for the wire gauge to minimize voltage drop and maximize lighting performance across your entire system.
Installation is straightforward for both DIY homeowners and professional landscapers. Simply run the wire from your low-voltage transformer to each fixture location, making connections with weatherproof wire connectors designed for outdoor use. For best results, bury the cable several inches below grade to protect it from lawn equipment and foot traffic. Pair this landscaping wire with energy-efficient LED fixtures to create a stunning outdoor environment that uses a fraction of the energy compared to traditional halogen landscape lighting systems, resulting in meaningful savings on your electricity bill year after year.
