1. The capacitance values represent capacitance from one conductor to all other conductors and shield. This is the appropriate value to use in the cable length calculations.
2. The resistance values include both wires of the twisted pair.

Compliance Voltage

If the compliance voltage of the control system is not known, perform the following compliance voltage test.
1. Disconnect the field wiring from the control system and connect equipment as shown in figure 2‐3 to the control
system terminals.

2. Set the control system to provide maximum output current.
3. Increase the resistance of the 1 kW potentiometer, shown in figure 2‐3, until the current observed on the
milliammeter begins to drop quickly.
4. Record the voltage shown on the voltmeter. This is the control system compliance voltage.
