Voltage Drop Example 1
Figure 5) shows two devices connected to the control unit. The first is 20m from the control unit
and has 60mA being taken from its auxiliary supply to power detectors. The second is 20m from
the first and also has 60mA being taken from its auxiliary supply to power detectors. The
example shows that the voltage levels at both nodes is acceptable. The voltage at each device is
as follows:
1. The total current being drawn at the first device = 120mA + 120mA = 240mA.
2. Voltage drop to the first device = 240mA @ 20m = 0.79V (see table).
3. Voltage at first device = control unit voltage - voltage drop = 13.60 -0.79 = 12.81V.
4. The total current being drawn at the second device = 120mA.
5. Voltage drop to the second device = 120mA @ 20m = 0.38 (see table).
6. Voltage at second node = first device voltage - voltage drop = 12.81 - 0.38 = 12.43V.
Voltage Drop Example 2
The second example in figure 5) shows what happens when a third device is connected 20
metres from the second.
