Step-by-Step Guide to Installing and Securing a Wyze Weatherproof Outdoor Sprinkler Controller Box

To install and wire a Wyze Weatherproof Sprinkler Controller Box, start by turning off the power to your Wyze Sprinkler Controller. The box includes all necessary mounting hardware and a quick start guide. Use a power drill with a Phillips head and a 7/32" drill bit to mark and drill holes for mounting. Insert the provided anchors, then secure the box to the wall with the included screws. For wiring, pull the electric wires through the 1/2" housing on the left and the controller wires through the 3/4" housing on the right. With the power still off, connect the electrical wires to the power outlet wires inside the weatherproof box using the provided connector caps, and wrap them with electrical tape for added protection. The white wire is neutral, black is phase, and green is ground. After wiring, mount the Wyze Sprinkler Controller inside the box, connect the power adapter, and close the cover, locking all clips to ensure a weatherproof seal. This setup allows you to keep your sprinkler controller protected outdoors with an IP65 weatherproof rating. The Wyze Weatherproof Sprinkler Controller Box is specifically designed for use with the Wyze Sprinkler Controller and is ideal if your controller needs to be mounted outside. For more details, refer to the included quick start guide or our installation resources. Wyze Weatherproof Sprinkler Controller Box: Provides IP65-rated weatherproof protection, includes all mounting hardware, and is designed for secure outdoor installation of your Wyze Sprinkler Controller.
