Hi.

How are you intending to wire these lights, circuit wise???

how do u meen mate going to wire them in 1.5 singles will more then likly put on two circits but not sure. dont know if i can get away with a 10amp as its 1.5 will have to work that out

Just trying to get a feel for what you have allowed for to make a stab a price.

Volt drop is the first thing that springs to mind.....a 120M run in 1 circuit would need 6mm.

I think I'd split it up into a few circuits via a contactor, to negate the volt drop and share the loading.

thanks for that was thinking that i would have to split them up because of the lenght of run

You would still need to look at the volt drop with circuit length being 120m, that is why Lenny said you are looking at 6mm fot the circuit

looks like will be useing 4mm and spliting the circits up
