Power and Control WiringA maximum of 0.1 ohm resistance is allowed between the battery and the mechanism terminals. Thewiring requirements are given in Table 2-2:Table 2-2 - Battery and Wire RequirementsDistance from Battery to MechanismCable Conductor SizeUp to 60 feetNo. 9 AWG60 to 120 feet No. 6 AWG120 to 250 feet No. 4 AWG (or 2 #6 AWG)Number of Cells (12-Volt System)Gate Arm Length Lead Nickel-Iron Nickel-CadmiumUp to 24 feet 6 9 925 to 42 feet 7 11 11Number of Cells (24-Volt System)Gate Arm Length Lead Nickel-Iron Nickel-CadmiumUp to 24 feet 12 18 1825 to 42 feet 14 22 22For more detailed information, refer to Section 6. These three curves are based on the maximum gatearm clearing times of 10, 15, and 20 seconds. These times are relative to the minimum voltage forvarious cell quantities of lead acid batteries and nickel iron or nickel cadmium batteries. The curvesrepresent maximum gate arm clearing times relative to minimum battery cell voltages. Fully chargedbatteries will decrease the time it takes for the gate arm to clear.<strong>SM</strong> <strong>6495</strong>, Rev. 7, December 2008 2-5
