Converting from 120V to 12V lighting

[ctviggen]

Hi all,

I have an in ground pool, with a 120V light. I bought a 12 V light since in the 6 inch lights, 120V lights were hard to find. This picture shows a box that houses 120V wiring for the light:



The right conduit has cabling connected to a 15A GFCI breaker (through a switch near the pool), the left conduit goes to the 120V, 6-inch light. I bought this transformer/light combination:

Light + 120V to 12V transformer

Is there a weather tight box I can buy to fit the transformer in, and which would connect to both conduits?

Is there a place to see what the electrical codes for this are? (I have done a lot of work on this and my other house, and have degrees in electrical engineering. I know that 120V and 12V are usually not allowed in the same "box", but is this an exception?)

Something like this might work:

Orbit outdoor box

But I cannot see all the information I'd need to see to be able to tell whether it would work.

That is interesting, thank you. It appears to be only available to professionals, though. Or at least I cannot find a location to buy it.

Great, thank you very much. While I'd like to use the transformer I have, since it has some fancy features with LED lights, we realistically only have a few more weekends of pool time where I live (CT). Once the kids get back to school, the pool gets forgotten.

I can figure out over the winter how to get the transformer installed, or maybe the electricians I called will have less to do and actually call me back.
