Alright, so I have an old pool, and everything i see makes me shake my head. When we bought the house, i guess they did what they could to get it up and running to sell. There was no GFCI breaker for the pool light, installing that this weekend. the converter box is by the electric panel in the house and then the wire runs out to a j box then down and into the pool housing. I got on a step stool and looked over into the converter when i was in the basement. Im very confused by this converter, one side has the 120v connections, but then on the other, there are only 2 wires connected with a wire nut, and then two others that were just sitting there (pictures attached). Is something wired wrong here? i bought a new 12 volt bulb to put in the pool because the other one burnt out (it was a basic flood light they put SMH), but now i'm skeptical if everything is done right, or if they bypassed something to just make it 120v. This light is old and i cant find any info on it online. I was thinking the wires not used are probably wires that would be used for 13 or 14 volts, and the two that are connected in fact make it 12 volts.
