How to choose the model and specifications of the power cable for weighing instruments? Is the model specification selected in the figure below applicable?

The power consumption of a weighing instrument should be low; if the transmission distance isn’t very great, it’s not necessary to use a 2.5-square millimeter cable. A single-core wire is sufficient for the power cable; this is different in the case of contracted projects.
1.5 square meters should be sufficient; in fact, the power consumption is not high, around 10 watts, and the maximum current does not exceed 0.1A. The instrument is usually powered by alternating current, which is then converted to 24V direct current inside the instrument. In fact, it is best to convert the 220V AC electricity in the power distribution room into 24V DC before sending it to the weighing instruments on site.
