WIRING 115VAC POWER
For standard 115VAC power connection:
Verify AC power supply wires and low voltage
(12V & 24V accessory power wires) run through
two separate conduits. The higher voltage from
the AC power supply may cause interference
and anomalies in SlideSmart operation if the
high and low voltage wires are routed through
the same conduit.
Maximum gate operator current draw is 3 Amps
on a dedicated 115VAC circuit (20A dedicated
circuit is recommended).
Make sure proper wire size is used. Table 4
shows the maximum allowable wire run from
the power source to the operator for various
wire sizes.

To connect to 115VAC power, take the following
steps:
1.
Make sure the AC power is turned off at its
source and the DC and AC power switches on
the operator are in the off position.
2.
Access the input power wires and service outlet
wires by removing the two Phillips-head screws
that secure the high voltage junction box cover.
See Figure 22.
3.
Wire nut or crimp bond the power supply wires
to the black and white lead wires coming from
the AC power switch (no label). See Figure 22.
4.
Wire nut or crimp bond the equipment ground
wire to the green ground wire in the junction
box.
5.
To activate the 115VAC service outlet, include
the black and white outlet lead wires and the
green ground wire in the connections made
above.
6.
Neatly organize all wire connections and
replace the high voltage junction box cover.
Secure it with the two Phillips-head screws.
NOTICE
Table 4 assumes a dedicated circuit with an
accessory power load up to 2A. Additional
loads require that the wire size be increased
or the distance of the run be decreased.
NOTICE
The service outlet wires are solid copper and
are labeled and bound together to keep them
separate from the AC power switch wires.
