Voltage drop<br />
Voltage drop at rated current<br />
The following diagrams show the voltage drop of the<br />
BD2A/BD2C systems<br />
• Taking into account the heat resistors<br />
(according to IEC/EN 60439-2)<br />
• With a load distribution factor a = 1<br />
• Under loading with the rated current. (With a different load<br />
distribution factor the curve value must be multiplied by the<br />
corresponding distribution factor.)<br />

Calculation of the voltage drop<br />
With long runs you may need to calculate the voltage drop.<br />
DU = a x !3 x I x l x (R x cos v + X x sin v) x 10 -3<br />
