Wiring for fountains and lights using low voltage lighting cable.

I have low voltage wiring in the ground and recently purchased a fountain with a 120V plug. Is there a way to tie this in with the low voltage line. I want to try to avoid having to buy a low voltage pump for the fountain.

No Low voltage wiring does not have a ground wire which you must have for line voltage outdoor lighting or especially for fountains. Your best bet is to run the correct UF CABLE or conduit from the house to the fountain. Ge sure to install a GFCI device for safety. FYI - finding a low voltage pump will be quite the challenge.
