All single phase operators will have – L1 (neutral), L2 (hot) and ground.
All three phase operators will have – L1, L2, L3 and ground.
It is very important that operator is properly grounded.
NOTE: Permanent wiring is to be employed as required by local codes.
Important: On the phase operators the power connections must be properly phased. If they are
phased wrong, the gate operator will run backwards. To correct this situation, disconnect power at
main power source and at the operator’s electrical disconnect switch. Then, reverse any two of the
three power leads.
