Legend! Quick and easy to follow and straight to the point, been putting off connecting the 3 solenoids in my backyard for a week or two & ready to tackle it now!👍🏼
Most home grade sprinkler wire is 18 gauge single strand wire, so the marine wire is of adequate gauge, but it is likely multi strand. While I can’t give you advice on this specific wire. I have seen home sprinkler timer systems run on all kinds of wire, and they work fine, but it is probably not recommended. The recommended wire to use is direct burial 16-18 gauge for short distances and direct burial 12-14 gauge for most commercial applications.
plz help me : I have a orbit Programmable Sprinkler Mfr #57896--like the one u r working on-- i want to know HOW to program my 3 valves (stations ) to go on one after the other -each station watering for 10 min each
I bought recently the house and I did some backyard work but the contractor removed all wires. I have question can i connect two comp wires at box (I mean two white wires, since the box have two wires one from side yeard and other back yard)

Thank you thank you, your video saved me $450 installers were asking me for this job.
Where is the other video where u run a separate set of wiring that u refer to at start of this video
Thank you!!!!
Is 16 AWG "marine wire" good for sprinklers? Wasn't sure if all 16 AWG wire are created equal. Thank you!

I don’t see why not. I would probably do a pigtail. Connect both white wires along with a third wire (also white) to connect to the controller.
Where can I get the app?
