Once the sensor is installed, it will need to be wired for power and surge protection. Wa-
vetronix Click products allow you to quickly and easily include power and surge protection
in your sensor application. Please refer to the Click quick-reference guides for more com-
prehensive product instructions.
There are several ways your sensor might be set up:
˽
A two-part installation, with components in two areas: first, a pole by the road holds
your sensor plus a pole-mount box with a surge protector inside. Second, a main traffic
cabinet holds power and communications devices. The cabinet and pole are connected
via a homerun cable that runs underground.
Note
This chapter assumes the box and cabinet are connected by an underground cable
run, but in certain circumstances they might not be.
