Figure 3-14 Example of Solution to an Overload
(a) Total current consumption of section 1
(a’) Total current consumption of section 2
(b) Overall power cable length of section 1
(b’) Overall power cable length of section 2
(c) Maximum current that can be supplied to the cables in section 1 based on Figure
3-10 = 2.93 A
(c’) Maximum current that can be supplied to the cables in section 2 based on Figure
3-10 = About 2.19 A (Obtained by linear approximation of 100 to 150 m)
(d) Since the total current consumption of both sections 1 and 2 is smaller than the
maximum current, power can be supplied to all the nodes by single power unit
central connection.
(e) Install a network power unit with a rated current capacity of 4.2 A or more.
(Select one with an adequate capacity, considering the conditions of use.)
