The distance you can run a 10-gauge low voltage wire, such as the "Landscape Lighting 12V Direct Burial Cable, 10/2 AWG, 100 Foot Spool," depends on factors like voltage drop, current load, and permissible voltage drop. For landscape lighting, aim for less than a 3% voltage drop. Typically, a 10-gauge direct burial wire carrying a standard load might allow for a maximum run of around 100 to 150 feet. However, precise distances should be calculated based on your setup's specific current and voltage requirements to ensure optimal performance and safety.
