Power and Ground Wiring
This is a 28VDC monitor that requires 1 amp of power to operate. To operate properly this
monitor requires an input voltage of 18-29VDC.
The rated current of the equipment and associated voltage drop should be taken into
consideration when selecting wire gauge. The following example is based on an install with
a 28VDC power system and a total of 50 feet of wire between the circuit breaker, monitor
and ground.
Example: 22awg wire has 16.2 Ohms per 1000 feet, this equates to .81 Ohms for 50 feet.
1 Amp of current on .81 Ohms will drop .81Volts.
Also, use short heavy gauge wire and a clean tight connection for ground.
It is the installer's responsibility to understand the product's requirements to install the
product in compliance with industry standards and safety.
