Use Table 4 to determine high voltage wire size requirements. The distance shown in the chart is
measured in feet from the operator to the power source. If power wiring is greater than the maximum
distance shown, it is recommended that a service feeder be installed. When large gauge wire is
used, a separate junction box must be installed for the operator connection. The wire table is based
on stranded copper wire. Wire run calculations are based on a 110 VAC power source with a 3%
voltage drop on the power line, plus an additional 10% reduction in distance to allow for other losses
in the system.
2.1.1 SINGLE OPERATOR
• Route incoming high voltage power
through conduit and into the operator
as shown in Figure 23.
• Be sure wiring is installed in
accordance with local codes. Be sure
to color code all wiring.
• Connect BLACK power wire to the
HOT terminal as shown.
• Connect WHITE neutral wire to NEUT
terminal as shown.
• Connect GREEN ground wire to
ground lug.
• It is recommended that a surge
suppresser be installed on the high
voltage power lines to help protect the
operator and circuit board from surges
and power fluctuations.
