1.3.4. Loop wire installation instruction:
1.
Remove and clean up any additional objects and dirt from the ground slot cut.
2.
Preserve extra length of loop wire required, in case of wire length consumed by the
wire twisting section from loop to terminal.
3.
Straighten the wire, loop it and place into the bottom of the ground slot with a tool
like a wood stick; until reaching at least the min. number of loop turns required.
4.
Place backer rods (must be non-metal material and roughly 30cm long with 2.5cm
piece spaced in between every piece) on top of the loop wires to hold them stay at
the bottom position of the slot.
5.
After properly installation of the wires, placing the sealant into the loop slot. (Sealant
material can be EPOXY or same as drive way pavement)
6.
Avoid air remaining in the loop slot when applying sealant with proper tool.
7.
Scratch off extra sealant to maintain a flat surface of the drive way. Do not make the
sealant top higher than the drive way surface to avoid wire loops get damaged by
passing cars.
