Calculation
The example calculation below illustrates the method for determining the maximum allowable wire
length from the NAC1 output to the EOL resistor.
Determine the maximum wire length (L
max
) for three Notification Appliances on NAC channel 1 where,

The manufacturer data sheet for the strobe indicates that the minimum operating-voltage (V
Opmin
)
is 16 VDC.

The manufacturer data sheet for the strobe indicates that the maximum current-draw (I
strobe
) is
209mA DC.

The circuit connection is provided with 18 AWG solid-copper-wire.

The EOL resistor in the circuit is 10K Ohms.
To determine the maximum safe-wire-length (L
max
) of this circuit:
1
Identify the minimum operating-voltage (V
STB-min
) of the strobe from the manufacturer data sheet.
From the manufacturer data sheet:
2
Calculate the total current of the parallel devices in the circuit (I
total
) where,
[ I

/ EOLD) ]
= [ ( 0.209 + 0.209 + 0.209 + 16 / 10K ) ] A
= ( 0.627 + 0.0016 ) A
