For low voltage downlights, you need to select a transformer that matches the power requirements of your lights. Key considerations include:
- Voltage Rating: Ensure the transformer matches the voltage rating of your downlights, typically 12V.
- Wattage: The total wattage of the connected downlights should not exceed the transformer’s maximum wattage rating.
- Type: Electronic transformers are more common and offer more efficiency, while magnetic transformers are more robust and can handle higher loads.
