Determine Power Requirements 4-17

1. Determine the total length of the network.

274m

2. Add each device’s current together to find the total current.

0.25+0.50+0.10+0.25+1.00+0.10 = 2.20A

3. Find the value next largest to each section’s length using Figure 4.5 on

page 4-8 to determine the approximate maximum current allowed for
each section.

280m (3.96A)

Since the total current does not exceed the maximum current, the system will
operate properly (2.20A

3.96A).
