24 VAC Wiring Distances Table
The following are the recommended maximum wire distances (transformer to load) for 24 VAC applica-
tions and are calculated with a 10-percent voltage drop. (Ten percent is generally the maximum allowable
voltage drop for AC-powered devices.) Distances are calculated in feet; values in parentheses are
meters.

Video Coaxial Wiring Distances
Cable Type* Maximum Distance
RG59/U 750 ft (229 m)
RG6/U 1,000 ft (305 m)
RG11/U 1,500 ft (457 m)
EXAMPLE: An enclosure that requires 80 vA and is installed 35 feet (10 m) or less from the 24 VAC source
would require a minimum wire gauge of 20 AWG.
* Minimum cable requirements:
75 ohms impedance
All-copper center conductor
All-copper braided shield with 95% braid coverage
