24V Voltage Drop & Wire Length Distance Chart

Example: 24V Voltage Drop & Wire Length Distance Chart 

Determine load size. Let’s assume 

load is 55 W. Round up to nearest 

load.

1

Determine distance from driver 

to load. Let’s assume the 

distance is 90 ft.

2

It is recommended to install 12 AWG to 

eliminate excess voltage drop.

3

VOLTAGE DROP CHARTS

For best performance and lumen output, ensure proper wire gauge is installed to compensate for voltage drop of low voltage circuits.
