If USB communications do not work, this is an indicator that the AC 24 V operating
voltage is incorrectly wired (conductors V~ and
inverted).
6.3.3
AC 24 V Transformer sizing
The engineering responsibility includes transformer sizing.
The selected transformer rating is based on the total power consumption of the
automation station, the I/O modules and the connected field devices.
The operating voltage is AC 24 V. It must comply with SELV or PELV to
HD 60364-4-41 (2007-01-01) requirements.
NEC: Class 2 transformers or Class 2 circuits.
The acceptable deviation of the AC 24 V nominal voltage connected to the
transformer
is +20%/–10%. This means that after taking account of the cable
and contact resistances, a tolerance of +/- 20 % can be guaranteed for the
field
devices
.
IEC:
Double-insulated safety transformers to EN 61558, designed for continuous
operation, to supply SELV or PELV circuits.
NEC:
Class 2 transformers.
The rated transformer output must be at least 25 VA. In smaller transformers the
ratio of no-load voltage to full-load voltage is unfavorable (> +20 %).
For reasons of power efficiency the rated transformer output should not exceed
200 % of the maximum load.
