2.1 High Voltage Wire Runs
2.2 High Voltage Terminal Connection
The 9500 draws significant power and each operator should have a “Dedicated” circuit breaker at the power source.
If power wiring is greater than the maximum distance shown, it is recommended that a service feeder be installed. When large
gauge wire is used, a separate junction box must be installed for the operator connection. The wire table is based on stranded
copper wire. Wire run calculations are based on the NEC recommended maximum 3% voltage drop on the power line, plus an
additional 10% reduction in distance to allow for other losses in the system.
Remove the 3 locknuts
inside the electronic
box to swing box open.

SECTION 2 - WIRING
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 this 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!!
• Route incoming AC power wire through the high voltage conduit and
run wire in the operator electronic box as shown.
• Be sure wiring is installed in accordance with local codes. Be sure to
color code all wiring.
• It is recommended that a surge suppressor be installed on the high
voltage power lines to help protect the operator and circuit board from
surges and power fluctuations.
• Dual operators (Primary/Secondary) require AC power to each operator.
Never run high voltage and low voltage
in the same conduit.
