Cable and wire length guidelines
The following table defines cable length guidelines
for the various wire sizes that may be used for
wiring low voltage (<30 V) input and outputs.
Table 4: Cable length guidelines
Guideline
Wire size/Gauge and type
Maximum cable length and
type
Assumptions
1.0 mm (18 AWG) stranded copper
457 m (1,500 ft) twisted wire
0.8 mm (20 AWG) stranded copper
297 m (975 ft) twisted wire
297 m (975 ft) twisted wire
0.6 mm (22 AWG) stranded copper
183 m (600 ft) twisted wire
183 m (600 ft) twisted wire
A
0.5mm (24 AWG) stranded copper
107 m (350 ft) twisted wire
107 m (350 ft) twisted wire
100 mV maximum voltage drop
Depending on the cable length
and the connected input or
output device, you may have
to define an offset in the setup
software for the input or output
point.
