Use Table below to determine high voltage wire size requirements. Distance shown in the chart is measured
from the operator to the power source. If power wiring is greater than the maximum distance shown, a service
feeder is recommended. When large gauge wire is used, a separate junction box must be installed for the
operator connection.
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 electrical
losses in the system.
1. Locate the two battery leads (red & black with with battery lugs) inside unit (IMAGE 11-1).
2. Attach lugs of the battery cable to the battery terminals; black to negative (-) and red to positive (+)
terminals.
