Connecting Multiple Loads (continued)

Radial Power Distribution Method

To connect distributed loads, we recommend that you use radial power distribution. With this method, you
connect power to each load individually from a single pair of terminals designated as the positive and negative
distribution terminals. These terminals may be the power supply output terminals, the terminals of one of the
loads, or a distinct set of terminals especially established for distribution use. Connect the sense leads to these
terminals to compensate for losses and minimize the effect of one load upon another.

Figure 2.7-7 and Figure 2.7-8 show recommended load and sensing connections for multiple loads. Local sense
lines shown are default J10 sense connections. See Section 2.8 Local and Remote Sensing for more information
about using remote sensing and grounding the sense line shield.
