Complete unit with 6 ft cable Submersible drop cables
The submersible drop cables for SQF pumps are
approved for use in drinking water (KTW approved).
The material of the submersible drop cable is EPR.
The table below shows the maximum length of the
submersible drop cable for the different sizes of cable,
allowing for a 2% power loss.
The table values are calculated on the basis of the
formula:
where
L = Length of cable [ft]
∆
P = Power loss [%]

mp
= Maximum power voltage [V]
Wp = Watt peak [Wp]
