Using an External Transformer for Multiple 12 VAC MagicStream
When using a 100 Watt transformer (set at 12 VAC) with multiple 12 VAC MagicStream
recommended that no more than six (6) MagicStream laminars be used with a maximum of 15meters
12 gauge (4mm² Cu) cable run, between the transformer and the junction box. There should be no
more than 30meters of cable between the junction box and the MagicStream laminar. This will ensure
that the MagicStream laminars receive a minimum operating power of 12 VAC. Note: For long cable
lengths, set transformer to 14 VAC, see diagram below.
