Step 3
Lay the low voltage wire in a trench following a path from the
selected electrical outlet to the control box. Wires coming up
from the ground should be run through PVC conduit to protect
them from lawn mower blades, weed eaters, and grazing
animals. Bury the wire in the trench.
Step 4
Bring enough wire up
through the PVC conduit to
reach the control board.
Step 5
Strip
3
/
16
" off the ends of the low voltage wire and twist
tightly. Attach these ends to the 14VAC OR SOLAR
terminals located on the terminal block). Be certain not
to let the exposed wires touch each other!
Insert one transformer wire into a 14VAC OR SOLAR
terminal. Insert the other transformer wire into the
remaining 14VAC OR SOLAR terminal. The transformer
wires can be connected to the 14VAC OR SOLAR
terminals regardless of color/polarity.
Tighten set screws against exposed end of wires.
Step 6
At the AC outlet, strip
1
/
2
" of insulation from the ends of the low voltage wire.
Attach these stripped ends to the transformer terminals.
Make sure the exposed wires do not touch each other!
Step 7
Plug the transformer into the electrical outlet. Use of a surge protector with the
transformer is
strongly
recommended. If electrical outlet is
located outdoors, outlet and transformer should be protected
by a weatherproof cover.
