Appendix B: Wiring
The proper use of wire and cable is necessary for the successful installation and
operation of the ProSYS Plus system. It is important to select wire of the correct
attributes to minimize power loss and ensure reliable system operation. Take into
account both the installation's current requirements (for this you can utilize the
HandyApp calculator feature) and the wiring distances involved. The following
tables provide useful information:
