9 Cable Diameter (36V DC) and
Transmission Distance
18
The recommended transmission distances are for reference only, and the actual
conditions shall prevail. The following table shows the maximum transmission
distance of cables with certain diameter when the 36V DC power source voltage
loss rate is below 25%.
For devices powered by direct current, the maximum voltage loss rate allowed
is 25%. For example, when a device of 150W rated power is installed 76 feet (23
m) away from the transformer, the minimum diameter needed is 0.80 mm
In the following table, the unit for diameter is mm, and the unit for transmission
distance is foot (m).
