WIRING 230VAC POWER
Wiring 230VAC Power
All Kinec operators are shipped
from the factory as 115VAC units.
When connecng to 230VAC power,
the voltage selector switch on the
AC power board must be moved
to the 230V posion or damage to
the operator will occur and void the
Limited Warranty.
For the 230VAC power connecon:
• Verify AC power supply wires and low voltage (12V & 24V accessory power wires) run through two
separate conduits as discussed in Wiring 115VAC Power.
• Maximum gate system current draw is 1.5 amps on a dedicated 230VAC circuit (20A dedicated circuit
is recommended).
• Make sure the proper wire size is used. The following table shows the maximum allowable wire run
from the power source to the operator for various wire sizes.
AC Power 14-gauge wire 12-gauge wire 10-gauge wire
One operator 230V 2095  (639 m) 3350  (1021 m) 5300  (1615 m)
Two operators 230V 1465  (446 m) 2350  (716 m) 3750  (1143 m)
Table 3. Wire Gauge versus Run for 230VAC
Table 3 assumes a dedicated circuit with an accessory power load up to 2A. Addional loads require that
the wire size be increased or the distance of the run be decreased.
