✔ Plug & Play. You connect to the low-voltage main cable (12V) in literally no time at all with the special Easy-Lock system. After this the fixtures can be controlled from one place, or switch on and off automatically if desired. You roll out the cable from your transformer, connect a fixture and you're done. The cable can end anywhere, the cables do not have to form a closed system. You lay the cables directly under the paving or cover them in the borders with just a little bit of earth.
✔ Safe in use thanks to 12 Volt low voltage: From the transformer, which is connected to the 230 Volt mains, there is only a low-voltage cable to which all fixtures are connected. This makes the system absolutely safe, even if you damage the cable. A reassuring thought, especially with playing children or digging pets nearby.
