PLD Wiring Topologies

The PLD is designed to be connected directly to the speaker terminals at the end of the speaker line. The device is fitted with two 18AWG insulated conductors, 250 mm long. To identify the different models a color scheme has been implemented on the leads. PLD-1's have a white lead and PLD-2's have a yellow lead.

PLD's can support loudspeaker cable lengths of up to 4265 feet (1300 meters). Use of the PLD on speaker lines over this distance is not supported due to the large amount of variables involved, including speaker type, speaker placement, cable type, cable gauge and the installation environment. Appropriate gauge and reference ceiling speakers loading must also be used for this limit to be achieved.

Note the PLD cannot be used with multiple branch speaker lines or with Low-Z output amplifiers.
