Don,
The Polyphaser RCT is a "shunt" device....It conducts current to ground
when there's a spike
on the line.
Each wire from the rotor is wired to a terminal lug .."In and Out" from
the
same terminal.
So wire #1 from the rotor goes to terminal #1 and wire #1 from the
control
box also goes to terminal #1
and so on for the other 8....or however many conductors you have up to 8
for each RCT Device.
Also, the device must be grounded to your ground system.
If you have one and need the directions for installation I can scan and
send to you.

Subject: [Towertalk] Polyphaser question...
I'm a little confused about how to wire a Polyphaser IS-RCT. If
I'm looking at this correctly there are only 4 terminal positions on
either side of the block. So what does one do when you want to
wire all 7 of your rotor control lines to this unit?? I'm assuming,
and we know what that means, that you only want to wire the 4
control wires of the rotor, i.e. do not wire the ground, the + or -
leads coming from the rotor. I've never had a rotor prior to this so
I'm looking for advice/techinical support on how the Polyphaser IS-
RCT should be wired.
Thank you,
Don Thaxton
