Ground

Grounding Rod

ID plug 

MUST

 be plugged in.

Proper grounding of this gate operator is a requirement for LIGHTNING 
PROTECTION in lightning prone areas.

 To be effective, ground connections 

should be made with a 

minimum 12 AWG, 600 volt

 insulated wire to a 

ground point within 

3 feet of the gate operator

. The ground point must be 

at an 

electrical panel

, a 

metallic cold water pipe

 that runs in the earth, or 

grounding rod

.
