Hi all,

How can I connect this in the picture.
I have 2 swimming pool lights.
So in total I have 2 cables and 4 wires but only 2 screws on the left. So how can I connect both lamps on this transformer.

Thank you in advance

Here is a mocked up picture.
Run each light through the separate wet connection into the box.
Then attached similar wires to each connector. Not sure if you have black & wire wires for each light or other colors.
The picture shows RED and BLUE to differentiate the hot and neutral wires.

Thanks! That is also how I thought it should be done, but didn't knew for sure because the wiring diagram on the instructions shows a different method.
 
Now I have another "problem". This transformer is getting mount to a wall but the pool light cables are way to short to reach this wall.

How do I get the cables to the wall
You are located in The Netherlands, so you need to determine the local codes for electrical wiring. You need to determine where a junction box can be placed, size of wire requirements, breaker requirements, etc.

Basically, you should have a junction box, another wire of sufficient length that is identical to the light wire and a conduit of same length. Join the 2 wires together in the junction box and have the new wire in an approved conduit from the junction box to the transformer box.
Ensure you keep like colored wires attached to each other to avoid confusion at the connection in the transformer box.
