I would need for you to find out the manufacturers of your gate system, along with the model number of the control panel which operates your gates. As far as the existing wiring is concerned, you might want to connect the wires into a connector block separately and keep them dry as there might be a live pair there of 24V. If there were to be any water to short these out, you might blow a fuse on the board or worse, damage the main pcb.

Hi
Thanks for your reply. I've posted some more pictures of the other components of the gate system - maybe these would help identify the manufacturer?

Knowing nothing about electric gates I would really appreciate some advice on how to rewire it. I've attached a couple of pictures showing the wires and inside the photocell. Unfortunately, we didn't install the gate and the previous owners left us no paperwork so we don't know the make and can't see any thing to indicate it anywhere.
Any help/advice would be much appreciated.
