Direct-Run Wire Length Chart
This type of wire configuration allows for long distances between the transformer and the
appliances (see illustration below). Use the charts below to determine the correct wire gauge
and length.

Wiring Examples:
Daisy-Chain Installations:
When using 3 appliances on one branch, 14 ga wire, and 150' of wire, use the 28V Lead.
When using 4 appliances on one branch, 10 ga wire, and 100' of wire, use the 24V Lead.
Direct Run Installations:
When using an appliance on a 200' run, 14 ga wire, use the 24V Lead.
When using 6 appliances, each on a 200' run, 14 ga wire, use the 24V Lead.
How to Determine Wire Gauge: When purchasing your wire, it should include a wire gauge (the larger the
number, the smaller the diameter wire). The wire will also be printed with a gauge number (e.g., AWG#14 = 14
gauge, 10AWG = 10 gauge, etc.). Do not use wires of dissimilar sizes (do not use 14-gauge & 10-gauge wire on
the same transformer).
