SECTION 2 – ELECTRICAL
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 such 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!
2.1 CONDUITS
The conduit requirements shown are typical for a barrier gate operator installation. The conduit
requirements for your application may vary from this depending on your specific needs. Use only
sweeps for conduit bends. Do not use 90° connectors as this will make wire pulls very difficult and
can cause damage to wire insulation. We suggest that minimum 3/4-inch conduit be used. Be sure
that all conduits are installed in accordance with local codes.
