Actuator wiring (modulating)

With AC supply, the G0 line has a AC 0.23 A supply current and a DC 0.1 mA
positioning signal current (from Y = DC 0...10 V). The AC voltage drop on the G0 line
does not impact the positioning signal Y.

Determining the line lengths for four actuators GEB16..1 and AC 24 V supply. Only the
AC currents in line 1 (G) and 2 (G0) determine the line sizing.
Max. permissible voltage drop = 4% per line.
