* Solar Powered Panels - The size of these depends on: the duty cycle of the gates; the hours of sun-
light; and the number and type of accessories fitted. 30 watts is recommended for Residential use. The
conductor size needs to be in accordance with
Table 1
below, as a minimum.
* Battery Powered with trickle charging - Due to the high cost of long runs of heavy cable, it may be more
economical in some installations to operate the gates from a battery, which is charged from a remotely
located trickle charger.
For example: a 15 VAC 2.5 Amp plug pack can be
located at the house, with appropriate wiring to the
gate, controller, and battery some distance away.
Follow
Table 1
for minimum recommended
conductor sizes for different distances.
WIRING
: All wiring must be arranged to prevent water
entering the controller enclosure. Do not wire mains
voltage and low voltage control wires in the same conduit.
* Low voltage motor cable sizes - Voltage will drop along
low voltage cables over long distances. It is
recommended to use cable with conductors of the
following minimum cross sectional areas.
