Electrical and electronic installa on and setup.
As a gate motor vibrates when in use, it is strongly recommended that only mul ple strand fl exible cables be used.
Before closing the unit, always remember to double check that all connec ons are securely made, that there are no stray strands fl aring out that can
short circuit against other adjacent connec ons or bared wires and that no cables will be pulled loose when the cover is replaced on the unit.
Double check the ba ery connec ons as loose connec ons can cause arcing and corrosion of the ba ery terminals.
Termina ng the AC voltages:
If you have chosen to install the standard kit which requires 220Vac at the gate motor then the 220Vac must be circuited through a weatherproof all pole
isolator switch. This isolator switch must be installed within 1,5m of the unit, must not be installed within the workings of the system (the gate may not
pass in front of it) and must be posi oned so that it cannot be tampered with for the outside of the property. This circuit must be cer fi ed by way of a
C.O.C. (cer fi cate of compliance) by a registered electrician.
In the case of the plug-in transformer op on being used, where the low voltage 29Vac is run to the gate, there is no need for the all pole isolator at the
gate and the circuit does not need to be cer fi ed by a registered electrician*. The cable however must s ll be installed in its own dedicated conduit
pipe and the basic principles of electrical safety standards should s ll be followed when selec ng, working with and installing the cable for this circuit.
* Some municipali es may require cer fi ca on of all domes c electrical circuits including those below 50V.
Termina ng the 220Vac supply at the motor.
Ensure the 220Vac has been isolated.
Terminate the 220Vac and earth as shown here.
Switch the 220Vac back on.
Ensure the 220Vac has been isolated.
