    Hello,

    Anybody have any idea why the 10Amps 12way relay L5512RVFP is not in the list on Cbus calculator 2.3.0 & 2.4.0? in the version 2.2.0 is listed but in the latest 2 versions is missing.
    Thanks in advance

    You're right, looks like an oversight in the database.

    In the mean time, you can use the 5512RVFBP, as it is identical for network calculation purposes.

    Thanks for your reply Newman.

    are you sure that the mA are excactly the same or is approximately the same? because the L5512RVFBP is a 12way relay also but is 1Amp instead of 10Amps

    As far as C-Bus is concerned, they're exactly the same. They both put an identical load onto the C-Bus network. Neither of them has a C-Bus network power supply and both of them draw 0mA from C-Bus when mains is connected.

    The only difference between a 5512RVFP and a 5512RVFBP was that the 'BP 'version used cheaper relays that weren't rated for fluorescent lamps beyond 1A, whereas the 'P' version can switch a full 10A of fluorescent lamps. They were sold at a correspondingly cheaper price.
