[Maximum power cable length calculation conditions]
Use the following formula to calculate the maximum power cable length:
(a)
100 V AC and 220 V AC supply voltages
F030206.ai
L (m)=
Voltage drop across wiring
Conductor resistance (ohm/km)×(Number of cores)×Equipment current consumption
× 1000
(b)
24 V DC supply voltage
F030207.ai
L (m)=
Voltage drop across wiring
Conductor resistance (ohm/km)×(Number of cores)×Equipment current consumption
× 1000
Note: In the formulas above, the voltage drop across wiring is assumed to be 2 V for AC power supplies and 1.2 V for DC power
supplies; the number of cores is two; and the conductor resistance is as specified in the table below.
