1.2 - Basic Cable Layout
This diagram details the basic cable layout for a pair of motors.
The power supply to the control panel should be live and protected in accordance with the 16th edition
electrical regulations. The supply should be rated at a minimum of 6 amps. When installing wires
outdoors the cable approach to all devices must be from below to create a ‘drip-loop’ and thereby
avoid unneccessary water ingress.
