Here is the situation.
A developer used a low voltage lighting system to illuminate the left and right sides of a subdivision entrance. Power is available on one side of the street only. Low voltage cable is run under the street in a 3" drain pipe. The homeowners have hired me to increase the lighting output of the existing system, or remove it with a substitution. The lights are bright enough on the side close to the transformer, but across the street is just glow. Major VD.
I've tried to pull the wire out of drain pipe but no joy. It won't budge.
Question: Is there a way to boost the voltage in order to get the 12 Volts needed 150' from the transformer?
