Wiring Intermatic Transformer

[RenoDataGuy]

Bringing this thread back to life. I have the 100w version of this transformer.
I understand basic electrical, and I've got the hot side of my transformer wired up for 13v (yellow wire) as my lights are about 65 feet away from the transformer. The low voltage side has two black wires, and my Pentair Microbrites have a black and white wire. Which one goes to which. I'm assuming black on the lights is positive, and the white is negative.. yes maybe?

Appreciate the help.

Chances are, those who posted in that old thread may not have visited the site in quite some time.

So, post a link to the old thread here and/or a link to the transformer you are using. Manufacturer and model number help as well.

One wire goes to the common in the transformer (usually white to white) and the other to the voltage tap you are using. There is no positive/negative with AC power.

So.... I replied to the original thread, and the moderator moved me for some reason. Not sure why as my comment was completely related to the topic.

Anyways, I got it all figured out.

Thanks for replying. I am not concerned with how to wire the high voltage side. I had that wired up and it's good to go I was just concerned about the low voltage side. We are all good now.

Glad you got it all figured out!
