Precision Control in Landscape Lighting with our Power Line Communication (PLC) Dimmer

PLC DimmerBox on the side of a house outside during the day

In landscape lighting design, subtle adjustments often make the greatest impact. Dimming allows you to refine brightness across pathways, architectural surfaces, and plant material so focal points remain clear without overpowering surrounding elements.

This flexibility also allows lighting to adapt to how outdoor spaces are used. Homeowners may dim lights later in the evening for a softer atmosphere or increase brightness to highlight gathering areas, steps, pathways, and entryways when entertaining.

Our PLC Dimmer offers smooth, manual dimming control for compatible landscape lighting fixtures, delivering consistent performance from 100% down to 10% lumen output. The result is stable, flicker-free illumination that allows for the calibration of brightness with precision.

Seamless control is only part of the equation, equally important is how effortlessly the control integrates into the overall landscape lighting system.

  • Straightforward Installation Provides easy and straightforward installation; it powers in from the transformer and powers out to the dimmable load, allowing for seamless integration into typical low-voltage layouts.

  • Compact Size Its compact size makes it easy to mount discreetly within planting beds or concealed areas of the landscape.

  • Construction Stainless-steel transformer-style housing protects the unit from environmental exposure while eliminating the need for a separate weatherproof enclosure.

  • Surge Protection Equipped with 2,000-volt fixture surge protection helps safeguard fixtures from electrical irregularities and power fluctuations, particularly when paired with a compatible transformer.

  • Multiple Fixtures on a Run Can support up to 20 compatible dimmable fixtures on a single run, providing control across an entire lighting zone.
