Hi,

Since there is so many discussion on autogate, I decided to chirp in and get some opinion. Please give some opinion is this can work.

I am planning to do renovation for my house and got some quote for autogate wiring (only wiring as I will do all the resealing of the cable myself as renovation people can help me do that). However, those quote I think is a bit too much as wiring does not even cost more than RM100. So, I am planning to do some DIY wiring which is something like this.

I plan to pull an armour wire (7/5 core) from my indoor living room switches to the control box outside which is around 25 feets. In my living room switches, there is 1 switch which connects to my outside gate light which I plan to use and reconnect for my autogate as it is already connected to the MCB with power. With this I can already connect the power to the autogate and use the current switch for push button switch. Outside my home, I can pull another 2 armour cables from the control box to the left and right swing arm which is maybe 5 feets and 15 feets respectively. I can also pull a colour code cable from the control box to the outside gate light to light it whenever the autogate is operating.

Possible? Hope can technical people can give some comment as I feel this can be done easily rather than pay a few hundreds for something which is simple. Thanks.

If I got quoted rm350 I think is ok. Problem is all quote I got is rm600 and above and they are not willing to lower more than that. I think it is a bit over priced. If your electician can do Selangor area maybe you can let me have his contact. Hehe....

can have contact?
