any single run!

2. Cut the Rope Light at the end/beginning of the nearest series
increment. NOTE: Rope Light is wired in series parallel and
every 24” comprises a series increment. Cutting anywhere other
than the end/beginning of a series increment will result in a loss

4. Attach the plastic cap on the other end of the cut section of
Rope Light by pressing firmly until seated. For outdoor
applications, use dielectric grease inside the end cap before
attaching and seal the connection with heat shrink tube.
INSTALLING ROPE LIGHT
