4.1.5 Recommended Wire Gauge

VIN to J1
The connection between the source voltage, VIN, and J1 of HPA431 can carry as much as 5 Adc. The minimum recommended wire size is AWG #16 with the total length of wire less than four feet (two feet input, two feet return).

J2 to LOAD1
The power connection between J2 of HPA431 and LOAD1 can carry as much as 1.5 Adc. The minimum recommended wire size is AWG #18 with the total length of wire less than two feet (two foot output, two foot return).

J3 to LOAD2
The power connection between J3 of HPA431 and LOAD2 can carry as much as 2.5 Adc. The minimum recommended wire size is AWG #18 with the total length of wire less than 2two feet (one foot output, one foot return).
