Redarc Distribution Boxes.
24-5C
Function:
The Redarc 24-5C is used to provide 24V power for trailer lighting without overloading the towing vehicle lighting circuits. It is especially suitable for modern vehicles with computer lighting control units that report lighting faults.
Connections:
The 24-5C is connected via an earth wire & three 6-way plugs.
The plugs are:
- 24V Power Inputs
- 24V Control Inputs
- 24V Outputs
The colour code for all three connectors is:
BROWN: Tail lights.
RED: Brake lights.
YELLOW: Left indicator.
GREEN: Right indicator.
BLACK: Reversing light.
The WHITE wire is not in a plug & has a terminal lug, which must be earthed.
Ratings
The input wires draw approx 40mA from the towing vehicle lighting circuits. The output circuits are protected by pushbutton reset circuit breakers, rated as shown.
- Tail and brake lights- 20A each.
- Indicators and reverse- 15A each.
The total combined load rating of all circuits is 45A maximum
Precautions
The internal electronics are potted in silicone elastomer to prevent moisture ingress, however a direct blast from a pressure cleaner should be avoided.
