Determining the line lengths for two actuators GMA13..1 and AC/DC 24 V supply.
Only the currents in line 1 (G) and 2 (G0) determine the line sizing.
Max. permissible voltage drop = 4% per line (total 8 %).
AC 24 V: Line 1 (G), 2 (G0) DC 24 V: Line 1 (G), 2 (G0)
∂ Consumption = 2 x 5 VA = 10 VA
∂ Line current = 2 x 0.21 A = 0.42 A

6.4 Actuator wiring (modulating)
Differentiate between AC 24 V and DC 24 V to determine the permissible line lengths
between the positioning module and the actuator. The section below discusses the
effect of G0 line sizing.
6.4.1 AC 24 V supply
With AC supply, the G0 line has a AC 0.21 A supply current and a DC 0.1 mA
positioning signal current (from Y = DC 0...10 V). The AC voltage drop on the G0 line
does not impact the positioning signal Y.
