NMEA-2000 Load Equivalency Number or LEN

[jimh]

Here is a short list of some popular NMEA-2000 products and their power load equivalency number or LEN. A unit of one LEN is equal to 0.050-Amperes or less of power consumed from the network, rounded up. A device that consumes 0.051-Ampere would be LEN =2. Information is taken from various manufacturer literature and from NMEA.ORG's website. The NMEA list is only for NMEA-2000 certified products.
