ENCAPSULATED LOW VOLTAGE LED LIGHTING SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A lighting streamer for a low voltage LED lighting system, the lighting streamer comprising:
- a cable having a first end and a second end, the cable including a positive conductor and a negative conductor;
a first connector positioned on and in electrical communication with the first end of the cable;
a second connector positioned on and in electrical communication with the second end of the cable;
at least one socket assembly positioned between the first connector and the second connector and in electrical communication with the cable, the socket assembly defining a top portion and a bottom portion which when assembled, pierce the positive conductor and the negative conductor and place a positive contact in electrical communication with the positive conductor and place a negative contact in electrical communication with the negative conductor, each of the at least one socket assemblies being configured to receive an LED bulb therein; and
a protective coating encapsulating the at least one socket assembly.

Abstract
A lighting streamer for a low voltage LED lighting system includes a cable having a positive conductor and a negative conductor, a first connector, a second connector, and at least one socket assembly positioned between the first connector and the second connector and in electrical communication with the cable. Each of the socket assemblies are configured to receive an LED bulb therein. The socket assembly defines a top portion and a bottom portion which when assembled, pierce the positive conductor and the negative conductor. A protective coating encapsulates the at least one socket assembly. At least one LED light bulb positioned in and in electrical communication with the at least one socket.
