1.3 Underground Conduit Requirements

1.4 Pad Mount

The conduit requirements are for a typical swing gate operator installation (the secondary operator is shown for

those applications where a secondary operator may be used). The conduit requirements for your application may
vary from this depending on your specific needs.

Use only sweeps for conduit bends. Do not use 90° connectors as this will make wire pulls very difficult and can

cause damage to wire insulation.

We suggest that minimum 3/4-inch conduit be used to protect wires from the elements.

Be sure that all conduits are installed in accordance with local codes.

Depth of the concrete pad is
determined by soil conditions and
local building codes. Reinforced
concrete recommended.

Note: If allowed by local codes, the
top of the concrete pad can be flush
with ground level, which will allow
the gate bracket to be mounted
lower on the gate.
