Hi, got a job to put 20 lights in decking and was looking for best way to approach.

There is an outside socket, simple method would be to plug 2 lots of the lights into the socket, but was looking for a better, more permanent method as the run from the extension to the decking is 15meters.

I was looking at the 10light decking kits which include the transformer.

I was thinking. Fcu from the ring, pop through the wall to an ip box where I gland and connect an swa, then run the swa to ip box near decking, where it houses the transformers, either plugging in or hard wiring. Allowing a Photocell to be connected.

Any suggestions.
