WAC Lighting WAC-5511 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can the WAC Lighting 5511 spot light be fully submerged in a pond?
Yes. The 5511 submersible spot light is IP68 rated for continuous immersion down to 5 meters, with a factory sealed watertight brass housing. It is built for ponds, waterfalls and water features rather than just splash exposure, and it also carries UL and cUL listing for wet locations.
2) How far out of the water can I make the wire connection on this underwater light?
The fixture ships with 360 inches (30 feet) of attached lead wire, so the splice can be made well up the bank or inside a dry junction outside the pond. Plan the transformer or splice point within that 30 foot run, since the connection should never sit in the water.
3) What transformer do I need to run the WAC 5511 submersible spot light?
It is a 12V landscape fixture and accepts an input of 9 to 15V AC, so it runs off a standard low voltage landscape transformer. It is hardwired, not plug-in, so the leads land on the transformer's secondary or in a wet-rated junction. The 9-15V input window gives you some headroom for voltage drop on longer runs.
4) Is this pond light dimmable, and what kind of dimmer works with it?
It dims on the MLV (magnetic low voltage) side, meaning the dimmer goes on the line side of a magnetic landscape transformer, not on the 12V leads at the fixture. Pair it with an MLV-rated dimmer; a standard incandescent or ELV dimmer is the wrong control for it.
5) Will the light color on this underwater spot match my other landscape fixtures?
The 5511 is a 3000K warm white integrated LED with an 85 CRI, which is the common warm landscape color used across most path, well and accent fixtures. If your existing run is 2700K it will read slightly cooler; against other 3000K fixtures it will match.
6) Can the lamp be replaced in the WAC 5511, or is the LED sealed in?
The LED is integrated and the housing is factory sealed watertight, so there is no serviceable lamp. It is supplied complete with the light source, rated at 50,000 hours, and is replaced as a whole unit at end of life. That sealed build is what allows the IP68 immersion rating.
7) How big is the WAC 4.5 inch submersible spot light and how does it mount?
Overall it measures 4.5 inches long, 4.75 inches wide and 5.5 inches high, so it sits low enough to hide behind rock or planting at a pond edge. The mounting is reversible, which lets you aim it up at a waterfall or invert the bracket to graze across the water without a separate accessory.
8) Does this WAC underwater light meet California Title 24 for a residential landscape job?
Yes, the 5511 is listed as Title 24 compliant, which matters on California outdoor lighting permits. It is not Energy Star qualified, so if your spec calls specifically for an Energy Star fixture this one will not satisfy it.
9) Will brass hold up in pond water, or should I use a different material?
The body is solid cast brass, which is the material specified for continuous water immersion in landscape work because it does not rust and it weathers rather than fails. Expect the natural brass finish to patina over time in the water; that is cosmetic, not a durability problem.
10) Is the beam from this submersible spot harsh, or does it diffuse in the water?
It fires through a frosted glass lens, which softens the edge of the beam. In a pond or waterfall that reads as a glow on the moving water instead of a hard hot spot, which is usually what you want when the fixture is visible through clear water.
