Landscape Light Power Posts FAQs
What is a power post and where is it used in landscape lighting?
A power post is a site pedestal that brings power and controls closer to the landscape—ideal for plugging tools, powering transformers, or hosting controls.
What outlets or circuits can a power post include?
Models can include GFCI receptacles, switched outlets, low‑voltage lugs, and space for photocells, time clocks, or network controllers.
How do I plan conduit and wiring to a power post?
Run rated conduit from the service location, pull conductors sized for load and distance, and provide a proper junction compartment in the post.
Are GFCI and in‑use covers required outdoors?
Yes—outdoor receptacles need GFCI protection and in‑use (while‑in‑use) covers. Follow local electrical code for placement and height.
Can a power post include a transformer or control modules?
Many posts accept low‑voltage transformers and control gear behind lockable doors. Check cubic‑inch capacity and ventilation requirements.
How do I anchor a power post in soil or hardscape?
Set a concrete footing or anchor bolts per template; in pavers, use a core base or plate system. Ensure plumb alignment before final tightening.
What finishes and materials hold up in harsh climates?
Powder‑coated aluminum or stainless housings with gasketed doors resist corrosion; marine‑grade finishes are best for coastal sites.
Can I add smart controls or sub‑circuits at a power post?
Yes—add Wi‑Fi smart controls, contactors, or DMX/0–10 V modules as space allows. Provide surge protection for sensitive electronics.
What code and safety checks apply to site power pedestals?
Use listed components, bond/ground metal parts, and maintain required clearances. Label circuits and keep a one‑line diagram updated.
What maintenance keeps power posts reliable?
Inspect gaskets, hinges, and receptacles seasonally; tighten lugs and check for insect intrusion. Touch up finish if scratched.
