I have 16 lights at 18 watts for my deck lighting. This is 282 watts total and they are running on 12v. This is roughly 23.5 amps. I am using 10 gauge landscape wire for the outdoor lights and a 500 watt transformer. Do I need to run 10 gauge wire to the transformer and put it on a 30 amp breaker? Someone told me this is overkill. If there is 23.5 amps of load on the lights, don't I need 30 amp breaker which calls for 10 gauge wire?
