DALI and DALI-2 Lighting Control Bus Cable

This 14 AWG, 2-conductor cable is a practical option for DALI and DALI-2 lighting-control bus wiring when its CL3R/CMG riser-rated rating, conductor size, run length, and installation method meet the project requirements and local electrical code. DALI carries bus power and digital communication on one adjacent pair, and the bus connection is polarity-insensitive.

Run-length guidance: The DALI Alliance recommends 1.5 mm² (15 AWG) two-core cable for up to 300 m (984 ft) between the two farthest devices at the maximum 250 mA bus current. This 14 AWG cable provides greater conductor area than that recommendation, but the system designer must still confirm distance, voltage drop, terminal capacity, and installation method.

Important: This is bulk cable suitable for DALI bus applications; it is not a DALI-2 certified control device. Use it for the control bus, not branch-circuit power. Verify CL3R/CMG riser-rated, raceway, separation, and local-code requirements, especially near mains wiring.
