The table shows the input current taken by the various beacons. 
A supply voltage variation of +/-10% outside the voltage range is permissible. 
Nominal current at nominal voltage and 1Hz flash rate. 
Max. rated current at worst case supply voltage and flash rate.

Table 1: Electrical Ratings 

 
Ensure the system power supply is capable of providing  the maximum current required for all  beacons. Review associated cable 
size, length and quantity of beacons on each circuit.
