The distance you can run 12/2 low-voltage landscape wire, such as the Landscape Lighting 12V Direct Burial Cable, 12/2 AWG, 500 Foot Spool, depends on the total wattage of connected fixtures and the acceptable voltage drop, typically kept under 3% for optimal performance. For a 12-volt system, you can generally run about 100 feet with a 200-watt load while maintaining minimal voltage drop. For longer distances or higher wattages, consider using a thicker wire gauge to minimize voltage loss. Utilizing this cable allows flexibility in your landscape lighting design while ensuring efficiency and reliability.
