General Signals E-Bell Page

Post by weatherdan882002 » Fri Oct 29, 2010 7:11 pm

On the page, I noticed that it said, "The bell draws less than 0.15 amps of electricity, which is about 10% less than a mechanical bell." Reading the .pdf on the page, it occured to me that it's not 10% LESS than a mechanical bell, it's 10% OF a mechanical bell, which in terms of current is a big difference.

Just to explain it, if it were 10% less, it would mean the mechanicals draw .165A, but if it were 10% of, it would mean the mechanicals draw 1.5A. While most still don't draw that much, they still draw a lot more current than an electronic bell.
