Primary Network Configuration
Based on the power requirement and cable type select one of the primary network
configuration from the following:
• Single supply end-connected.
• Single supply center-connected.
Single supply end-connected
The calculations executed in Quick Start on page 65 determines if the network
supports this configuration. For example, while using the Thick cable, if the
accumulated electric current requirement for the network exceeds the value
available in Table 13, then Single supply end-connected configuration is not
appropriate for the network. Single supply end-connected is the simplest
configuration but provides lowest power capability.
Figure 23 shows a power configuration for a 700 foot network with a single supply
end-connected using a thick cable trunk line. The power calculation procedure is the
same as described in Quick Start on page 65.
The power supply capability must be equal to or greater than the load requirement
on the network.
