Transformers
Clark’s uses timer‐type transformers. There are two types of timers we use. The first is a traditional timer. These transformers come with a timer that contains a collection of tabs that can be pulled up or pushed down to control the hours in which the lights are to run. We recommend setting times in which the heaviest evening traffic is present. The second is what’s known as an “astronomical timer.” It’s preprogrammed with the hours of light and darkness for each day of the year and season so it comes on later in summer and earlier in winter. Plus it accounts for daylight savings timeLandscape Light Troubleshooting
