What is the maximum signal cable length that can be used to operate the actuator?
The “out of the box” cable that is factory–wired to the actuator is eight feet which will meet most installation requirements. However, this length can be easily extended with available 10, 20, 30, and 50 foot cable sections, up to 150 feet. Standard RCA connectors on each end of the cables allow quick extensions without the use of any tools. The cables furnished by The ZG are plenum-rated to UL94-5VA, which is a code requirement in most cities. However, ss a bonus, in those instances where a plenum–rated cable is not required, audio cables with RCA connectors (same as those used to hook up your stereo components) available from any wholesale or retail electronics and video store can be used. Cable extensions are explained in more detail in the website slide show.
