What wire gauge should I use for low-voltage landscape lighting?

Common sizes are 12, 10, and 8 AWG direct-burial landscape cable. Longer runs and higher wattage need heavier gauge to limit voltage drop (fixtures dim or change color when voltage sags). Use a voltage-drop calculator and measure voltage at the last fixture at night.
