Install the 60A circuit breakers within 7" (180mm) of the power source for each
actuator. Use corrosion resistant, stainless steel hardware.
Connect the positive power source to the corresponding circuit breaker. Size
the wire for at least 60A. Tighten the terminal to the torque specified by the
circuit breaker manufacturer.
