SECTION 2 – WIRING
Before attempting to connect any wiring to the operator, be sure that the circuit breaker in the
electrical panel is in the OFF position. Permanent wiring must be installed to the operator as required
by local electrical codes. It is recommended that a licensed electrical contractor perform this work.
Since building codes vary from city to city, we highly recommend that you check with your
local building department prior to installing any permanent wiring to be sure that all wiring to
the operator (both high and low voltage) complies with local code requirements.
THIS GATE OPERATOR MUST BE PROPERLY GROUNDED!!
•
The conduit requirements shown in figure 22 are for a typical swing gate operator installation
(the slave operator is shown for those applications where a slave operator may be used).
The conduit requirements for your application may vary from this depending on your specific
needs.
•
Use only sweeps for conduit bends. Do not use 90° connectors as this will make wire pulls
very difficult and can cause damage to wire insulation.
•
We suggest that minimum ¾-inch conduit be used.
•
Be sure that all conduits are installed in accordance with local codes.
