in-lite SWAY

En trädgårdsbelysningsplan är en enkel skiss som visar var varje utomhuslampa ska installeras innan du köper några armaturer. En bra belysningsplan förbättrar säkerheten, framhäver viktiga detaljer som träd och gångvägar, och hjälper dig att välja rätt transformator och antal armaturer. De flesta trädgårdar kan planeras i fem enkla steg och inom en timme.

This very much depends on the size of your garden, the number of features (walls, trees, borders, etc.), and your preferences. Most medium-sized gardens use somewhere between 8 and 15 fixtures, split between functional and atmospheric lighting. Larger gardens often need more. You can always buy a smaller amount of fixtures first to test how they look and then expand with more later.

Yes. One of the advantages of the in-lite 12V system is that it can easily be expanded over time. You can start with lighting for your patio and pathways, then add fixtures for trees, borders, or other garden features as your lighting plan evolves.

The right transformer depends on the total VA required by your garden lighting. Add together the VA rating of all the fixtures in your lighting plan and choose an in-lite transformer with sufficient capacity. Conveniently, the names correspond to their maximum VA (HUB 75 = 75 VA, SMART HUB 150 = 150 VA). Don't forget to allow some room for future expansion. This avoids the hassle of having to replace the transformer in the future.

Yes. Multiple in-lite fixtures can be connected to the same 12V ground cable. Each fixture is connected at the required position along the cable using an Easy-Lock connector. The total capacity of your lighting system (VA) must remain within the capacity of the in-lite transformer.

Yes. An in-lite transformer can be installed outdoors, but it must be mounted correctly and protected from the weather. in-lite recommends mounting the transformer at least 50 cm above the ground and away from direct rainfall. If no sheltered location is available, use a compatible in-lite PROTECTOR for your HUB model.

There is no single spacing that works for every garden. The right distance between bollards depends on the fixture's light distribution and height, the layout of the path or border and the lighting effect you want to create. Rather than spacing every fixture equally, position bollards where they help define the route and test the lighting effect after dark before finalising the installation. Try experimenting with a smaller amount of fixtures first before adding more.

For general wall and fence lighting, spacing wall lights around 1,5 to 2 metres apart is a useful starting point. The ideal distance depends on the fixture's light distribution, mounting height, and the effect you want to create. Wider spacing creates more distinct pools of light, while closer spacing produces a more continuous lighting effect.

For general wall and ambient lighting, a mounting height of around 1,5 to 1,8 metres above ground level is a useful starting point. Low-level wall lights used for paths, steps, or orientation lighting can be positioned much lower, typically around 30 to 45 cm above the ground. Always consider the fixture's light distribution and potential glare when choosing the final mounting height.

There is no fixed number of in-lite lights you can connect to one transformer. The limit depends on the combined VA of the fixtures rather than the number of lights. Add together the VA of all connected fixtures and make sure the total remains below the maximum VA capacity of your HUB or SMART HUB.
