Wire mounted LV Spots

Sep 28, 2003 5 Replies

I want to put some low voltage spotlights in my hall. Most fittings only have 4 x 20 watt which doesn't seem enough.



I would like to run some wires along the ceiling and have about 7 or 8 lights.



Where can I buy the components and the transformers separately?


TLC may have what you are after

LV watts are a lot brighter than GLS watts.

You could use two sets?

In general, this is a pretty expensive way of buying them compared to the sets in the sheds.

Any wholesaler, TLC, Screwfix etc etc.

Dave - I am hoping to spread the light sources along my hall using only one ceiling rose point. I am a bit unsure of route to run a cable to allow an extra point to be fitted. Must do some poking around.

It makes sense to extend the mains wiring to feed the transformers so the lamps have a short LV cable run, as LV cable has to be thicker.

I bought cheap kits for my use. If you then want to run on a single transformer watch the cable lengths. My kitchen is approx 3m by 2m and has a 5 by 20W set and that more than adequate.
