Low Voltage Cables PWR-CBL-24/2C
Important: this product is only sold to buyers / owners of our gate opener systems.
In the gate automation field, particularly for low voltage applications (12V and 24V), ensuring that cables have the correct diameter is crucial due to the following reasons and potential consequences:
-
Adequate Power Supply: Proper cable size ensures that the gate's motor and control units receive sufficient power, preventing operational issues.
-
Minimize Voltage Drop: Correctly sized cables minimize voltage drop over the length of the cable, ensuring that devices receive adequate voltage to operate effectively.
-
Avoid Overheating: Undersized cables can overheat due to the resistance they offer to the flowing current, which can potentially lead to insulation melting or fire.
-
System Longevity: Ensuring appropriate cable size contributes to the longevity of the entire system by preventing unnecessary wear on electronic components due to voltage instability.
-
Optimal Performance: Adequate cable sizing ensures that all components of the gate automation system work at their optimal performance levels without being hampered by power issues.
