Wire Specs and Run Distances
Use this chart to pull wires in preparation of your installation:
Use metal conduit - run wires in metal conduit instead of PVC pipe. Wires run in PVC conduit may experience
interference. Metal conduits also add extra protection against lightning strikes.
Never run Data wires and High Voltage wires in the same conduit. The high voltage wires may interfere with the data
wires, possibly causing the system to malfunction.

Note:
Always provide power from a dedicated source. Plug provided transformer into an outlet wired to its own 10 Amp minimum
circuit breaker. This will prevent two problems:
Other equipment cannot introduce spikes, noise, surges, or dips into the power circuit that will affect the system.
The system's operation will not be affected if any other equipment develops a short circuit across the power line.
