Wiring Distance Calculation Example

Suppose a system is configured with the following SBUS modules:
2 - 5860 Fire Annunciators
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
5895XL Current Draw
5865 Current Draw
5824 Current Draw
Total Worst Case Current Draw
= 2 x 0.100 amps = 0.200 amps
= 1 x 0.010 amps = 0.010 amps
= 1 x 0.200 amps = 0.200 amps
= 1 x 0.040 amps = 0.040 amps
= 0.450 amps
