Wiring Distance calculation example:
Suppose a system is configured with the following SBUS modules:
2 - Module 5860 Fire Annunciator
1 - 5895XL Intelligent Power Expander
1 - 5865 LED Fire Annunciator
1 - 5824 Parallel/Serial Interface
The total worst case current is calculated as follows:
Using this value, and referring to the Wiring Distance table, it can be found that the available
options are:
370 feet maximum using 22 Gauge wire
938 feet maximum using 18 Gauge wire
1493 feet maximum using 16 Gauge wire
2362 feet maximum using 14 Gauge wire
5860 Current Draw = 2 x .100 amps = .200 amps
5895XL Current Draw = 1 x .010 amps = .010 amps
5865 Current Draw = 1 x .200 amps = .200 amps
5824 Current Draw = 1 x .040 amps = .040 amps
Total Worst Case Current Draw = .450 amps
