Carefully planning the system prior to beginning the installation will save time and effort.
Recommended Power Unit Locations
for Power Unit locations.
Houses up to 440’ (134 m)
Two Power Units are recommended. These Power Units should be located at the center of the loop and
directly across from one another for ease of wiring.
Houses 441’ to 750’ (135m to 229 m)
Four Power Units are recommended. These Power Units should also be spaced evenly around the system.
To determine the proper placement of the power units, add the total length of the system, including 4’ (1.2
m) for each 90 degree elbow, and divide by 4. This will give an approximate distance between Power
Units, round up or down to the nearest suspension drop line. The Power Units should be evenly spaced
directly across from each other in the system. The Power Units should be placed in positions
.
