Abstract :
The author surveys the voltage drops in various low-voltage wiring systems used in buildings to determine limiting conditions. The floor areas that can be covered are presented as a function of the location of the supply source and the voltage-drop allowance. An economical voltage-drop allowance for use as a design standard is determined.
