Wire Sizes and Lengths for the IP-IO Modules
This section provides recommendations on wire sizes and lengths for the IP-IO modules.
Para mais informações, consulte IP-IO Module Models and I/O Point Types .
The recommendations are for guidance only. Other wire sizes and lengths may be used, depending on wiring rules and when appropriate.

- Use wires rated for at least 90 °C (194 °F).
- Digital or counter inputs.
- Supervised, voltage, current, resistive, or 2-wire RTD temperature inputs.
- Confirm the voltage drop from the external load current and the wire resistance (the product of the wire size and length) to obtain the appropriate voltage arriving at the controlled field device (load), to reliably energize and maintain.
