Power into CBUS Relay/Dimmer

I don't seem to be able to establish the power supply going into the CBUS equipment from reading the docs, I'm not major up on electrical, just know the basics.

So say for example a 12 Channel relay, what power would you put into it in order to power all the lights connected to it?

I'm in the UK if that makes a difference...


Thanks

Information regarding wiring is covered in the Installation Instructions. Is there something there that's not clear?

 

With the relay you don't put power into the actual relay as all it is is a switch. What you need to do is provide an active cable to each channel. The size will depend upon what you are putting on the load. The channels are capable of up to 10amps (2amps for certain fans) each.

With the dimmer, lets say you have a 1amp per channel dimmer with 8 channels then clearly you will need to provide enough capacity to handle 8amps.
