Installation Guide

Note: When you reach the
last light on the string, you
will only use two holes on
each connector as shown.
Installation using brown saddle connectors (included with
some Light Kits):
Split the power supply cable
down the middle without
exposing the internal copper
wire. Do not cut the cable in
half.
Straddle one side of the split
power supply cable with the
connector and insert one of
the wires from a light (either
white or black) in the other
hole in the connector as
shown. Then crimp the
connector with pliers and
repeat the process for the
other half of the of the low voltage cable. You should have
two connectors per light.
11. Connectors should be buried below the pavers in the sand
setting bed, in the ground, or in the stone behind retaining and
garden walls.
12. Set the light fixture in
its place. Make sure
adjacent pavers sit on the
“L” shaped feet that come
with some Paver Lights or
on the extended bottom plate
that is part of the light base
on others to hold down the
light. Run the wiring under
or around the existing or new pavers.
13. Install the light lens.
Important notes:
• Kerr Light Kits include transformers which are sized
to accommodate the number of lights included in the
Kit. Should you decide to add lights to the Kit, and
when planning your project, the wattage of the
transformer must exceed the total wattage of the
lights on the power cable. For example, if your
project includes 10 lights on a string, each with a 7
watt bulb, the transformer must exceed 70 watts of
power (10 lights x 7 watts each).
• The closer your lamps are placed to the transformer,
the higher their voltage (and wattage) readings will
be. Those farthest away will have lower voltages. If a
cable run is too long or if too many lights are being
powered by a single transformer, noticeable voltage
drop may occur. Voltage drop causes the lights
farthest from the transformer to become dim. Voltage
drop can be minimized by:
o using a heavier gauge cable (Kerr Lighting
recommends a maximum power cable length
of 100 feet on 16/2 cable and 300 feet for
12/2 cable)
o using a transformer with greater wattage
o using multiple transformers
o shortening cable lengths
o reducing the total number of fixtures on a
run
• When using Kerr Paver Lights in a new installation,
light lenses can be scratched by plate compactors if
not protected. Please cover the lens with cardboard
or a similar protective material to ensure that it does
not become damaged during compaction.
•
To prevent lens discoloration do not apply paver
cleaners or sealers to the light lens.
• Accessory and
replacement parts,
including lenses
and colored bulbs,
are available.
