The following values are taken from the tables to calculate Rline 1 and Rline 2:

  1. Table 2: Cable cross section for line 1 to the sub-distributor = 120 mm2
  2. Table 1: Cross section of the conductor rails (50 m length) for line 2 = 70 mm2
  3. Table 2: Cross section of the cable (60 m length) for line 2 = 70 mm2

 

For the MDR91B-0750-.. supply and regenerative module, an overload of 250% results in a permissible total resistance Rtotal = 105 mΩ.

Rtransformer = 3 mΩ

Rline 1 = 20 m × 0.153 mΩ/m = 3.06 mΩ

Rline 2 conductor rail portion: Rline 2_1 = 50 m × 0.298 mΩ/m = 14.9 mΩ

Rline 2 cable portion: Rline 2_2 = 4 × 15 m × 0.268 mΩ/m = 16.08 mΩ

Rtotal = Rtransformer + Rline 1 + Rline 2_1 + Rline 2_2

Rtotal = 3 mΩ + 3.06 mΩ + 14.9 mΩ + 16.08 mΩ = 37.04 mΩ

Condition: Rtotal ≤ Rpermissible

37.04 mΩ < 105 mΩ → condition fulfilled

 

The total resistance of the transformer, supply lines, and conductor rails is less than the maximum permissible total resistance up to the input terminals of the line choke.
