Transformers are made in the USA, but based on the rising costs of metals, we may not be able to get you a USA made model for this price so we may substitute with an imported model that has the same exact warranty and same exact quality assurance.


The numbers below in blue are the maximum amount of feet recommended per single run without losing noticeable voltage drop. For example: If you are running a 12 gauge cable on the 22 Volt Tap with a 225 Watt load, the maximum length your run should be is 187 feet. With any longer of a run, you may experience a noticeable voltage drop.

How do you access Multi-Volt Tap Transformer Ports?
The maximum circuit a transformer can have is 300 Watts per UL Standards. Therefore, a 300
Watt Transformer will only have 1 each 300 Watt Circuit; a 600 Watt Transformer will have 2 each 300 Watt Circuits, a 900 Watt Transformer will have 3 each 300 Watt Circuits, etc.

So being that this 1500 Watt Transformer will have 5 each 300 Watt Circuits, it will then have 5 each 300 Watt "Common" Access Ports but still only one set of Multi-Volt Tap access ports (12-22v taps). The reason for 1 set of Multi-Volt Tap Access Ports is because they can be shared with each common. Each port is large enough to accomodate up to 6 wires.

As an Example: Using this same 1500 Watt Transformer above, and say you have up to 1500 watts of fixtures:
1) You would first have to split your layout into at least 5 separte runs, each run must be no more than 300 watts.
2) With the First run, you would input 1 wire into the first Common Access Port and the
second wire into whichever Multi-Volt Tap Access Port you need for this run. If this run is going to be split off to different locations, then we suggest using our Outdoor Splice Containment Hub (click for details). This hub will allow you to take the 1 wire you input into the common and split it off into different locations. Keep in mind, this same entire run must stay under 300 watts.
3) With the Second run, you would input 1 wire into the second Common Access Port and the second wire into the same Multi-Volt Tap Access Port as the first run or a different Multi-Volt Tap Access Port (depending on what volt tap you may need for that run). If this second run is going to be split off to different locations, then we suggest using our Outdoor Splice Containment Hub (click for details). This hub will allow you to take the 1 wire you input into the common and split it off into different locations. Keep in mind, this same entire run must stay under 300 watts.
4) With the Third run, you would input 1 wire into the third Common Access Port and the
second wire into the same Multi-Volt Tap Access Port as the first or second run or a different Multi-Volt Tap Access Port (depending on what volt tap you may need for that run). If this third run is going to be split off to different locations, then we suggest using our Outdoor Splice Containment Hub (click for details). This hub will allow you to take the 1 wire you input into the common and split it off into different locations. Keep in mind, this same entire run must stay under 300 watts.
5) With the Fourth run, you would input 1 wire into the fourth Common Access Port and the
second wire into the same Multi-Volt Tap Access Port as the first, second or third run or a different Multi-Volt Tap Access Port (depending on what volt tap you may need for that run). If this fourth run is going to be split off to different locations, then we suggest using our Outdoor Splice Containment Hub (click for details). This hub will allow you to take the 1 wire you input into the common and split it off into different locations. Keep in mind, this same entire run must stay under 300 watts.
6) With the Fourth run, you would input 1 wire into the fifth Common Access Port and the
second wire into the same Multi-Volt Tap Access Port as the first, second, third or fourth run or a different Multi-Volt Tap Access Port (depending on what volt tap you may need for that run). If this fifth run is going to be split off to different locations, then we suggest using our Outdoor Splice Containment Hub (click for details). This hub will allow you to take the 1 wire you input into the common and split it off into different locations. Keep in mind, this same entire run must stay under 300 watts.

REMINDER: You can always share the Multi-Volt Tap Access Ports as per the above example. The only thing that can NOT be shared are the "Common" Access Ports.
