Two questions:
1. Is there s standard de-rated voltage to start from? For example on a nominal 24V system that has devices that work from 16V-33V, should we start at 24V or at some lower voltage? (or do you just say 10% and we are good as long as the starting voltage is 18Vish?) (manufacturer dependent?)
2. I was trying out the AFAA voltage drop calculator. Perhaps I am using it wrong. I assumed the first device is the one closest to the panel. However the voltage drop calculation sums the current of the devices from the bottom of the list up instead of from the first device down. ??????
