Safety Information
C
WARNING
Special precautions must be taken
when valve wires (also known as sta-
tion or solenoid wires) are located
adjacent to, or share a conduit with
other wires, such as those used for
landscape lighting, other “low volt-
age” systems or other “high voltage”
power.
Separate and insulate all conductors
carefully, taking care not to dam-
age wire insulation during installa-
tion. An electrical “short” (contact)
between the valve wires and another
power source can damage the con-
troller and create a fire hazard.
All electrical connections and wiring
runs must comply with local building
codes. Some local codes require that
only a licensed or certified electrician
can install power. Only professional
personnel should install the control-
ler. Check your local building codes
for guidance.
