Waterproof TPiercing Landscape Connector — secure, durable outdoor wire joins for landscape lighting Key benefits Fast, tool installation: Screwtightening design plus IDC (Insulation Displacement) technology lets you insert branch wires without stripping insulation or using special tools. The connector pierces insulation and clamps firmly for a reliable contact. Weatherproof and longlasting: Nylon housing with nickelplated brass contacts resists corrosion and maintains conductivity in wet outdoor environments, protecting connections over time. Reliable power handling: Supports up to 500W at voltages up to 220V, suitable for most lowvoltage and linevoltage landscape lighting runs. Flexible compatibility: Works with 12–20 AWG wires and accepts main conductors of 1.5–4.0 mm2 and branch conductors of 0.75–2.5 mm2, making it practical for mixedgauge landscaping systems. What it does and why you need it Creates secure Tstyle branch connections from a run to individual fixtures without cutting or splicing the main conductor. Eliminates the need to strip branch wires, speeding installation and reducing error or damage to conductors. Keeps connections protected from moisture and corrosion so outdoor lighting stays consistent and maintenance is minimized. Key attributes Function: Tpiercing connector with screwtightening clamp and IDC contact Compatibility: 12–20 AWG; main line 1.5–4.0 mm2; branch line 0.75–2.5 mm2 Materials: Nylon housing; nickelplated brass contacts Performance: Up to 500W at voltages within 220V; designed for outdoor use and wet conditions Practical use scenarios Adding a path light to an existing outdoor lighting run: insert the branch wire into the connector and tighten — no stripping or extra tools required. Extending power to deck or step lights: create a Tconnection from the main feed to power each fixture while maintaining a weatherproof joint. Installing garden or lawn spotlights: connect fixtures of different wire gauges easily using the compatible main and branch conductor ranges. Installation notes Insert the main and branch conductors per the connector's guides, use the screwtightening mechanism to secure, and the IDC will pierce insulation to form the contact. Verify power requirements remain within 500W and voltages within 220V for safe operation. Durable, straightforward, and designed for outdoor landscape lighting systems where weather resistance, quick installation, and reliable electrical contact are required.
