Maximum Wire Length
Follow the table below for maximum distances between system components. Wire gauge must meet local codes and in some circumstances wire gauge requirements change based on distance. Refer to Appendix A: Wiring Reference for wire gauge requirements.
Distance to Measure | Maximum Cable Length (12V and RS-485 4-conductor Communication Cable) |
---|---|
Powershare Gateway to Wall Connector |
150 ft (45 m) for 16 AWG (1.5 mm2) wire |
CAUTION
Failure to follow
minimum cable size and length requirements may result in intermittent or unreliable
operation of the Powershare system. In systems that do not
meet these minimum requirements, performance issues may arise even after successful
commissioning.
