2.1 High Voltage Wire Runs
2.2 High Voltage Terminal Connection
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.
Never
run low voltage rated wire insulation in the same conduit as high voltage rated wire insulation.
Use the wire restrainers inside
operator to keep wire away
from moving parts.

SECTION 2 - AC POWER TO OPERATOR(S)
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!!
Every time the operator is powered up, the First open command will automatically run “Multiple
gate cycles” that will locate and remember the gate’s open and close positions (See page 22).

•
Route incoming AC power wire through the high voltage conduit and run wire in the operator as shown.
•
Be sure wiring is installed in accordance with local codes. Be sure to color code all wiring.
•
It is recommended that a surge suppressor be installed on the high voltage power lines to help protect the operator and
circuit board from surges and power fluctuations.
•
Dual operators (Primary/Secondary) require AC power to EACH operator.

to swing box up.
DO NOT
power up and cycle the operator until the
“Physical stops” have been installed.
Damage could occur to
the gate and operator.
