• Use the connectors supplied in the box, as shown in the figures below; they are waterproof and provide reliable electrical connection.
• Strip ½ inch (1.5cm) of each wire end (Figure 1 – step 1).
• Twist the stripped ends together (Figure 1 – step 2).
• Screw the silicone filled wire nut on the twisted ends until it stops turning (figure 1 – step 3).

Important Information!
Twisted cables or a screw terminal insulated with insulation tape is not a satisfactory splice. Soil moisture will cause the conductors to oxidize and after a while result in broken circuit.
