Oops, I meant to say "ampacity"
The ampacity of Cat 5 cables, which typically use 24 AWG conductors, is around 500 mA (0.5 amps) per conductor. In Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications, this capacity is used to safely transmit power alongside data.
It's important to note that PoE standards like IEEE 802.3af (PoE), IEEE 802.3at (PoE+), and IEEE 802.3bt (PoE++) have been designed with these limitations in mind. They ensure that the power delivered over Ethernet cables stays within safe limits to prevent overheating and maintain reliable performance.

Oh, sure, because using a ethernet wire, which is meticulously engineered to carry high-frequency data signals up to 100MHz, with its four twisted pairs and shielding designed specifically to fend off electromagnetic interference, just to lug around some basic electricity, is totally the genius move of the century and screams efficiency and viability.
We will never see those pictures, will we?

I see everyone just blew past my questions.
1. How does a licensed contractor install the system without a permit?
(We really believe part of the company’s plan is to retrofit buildings without getting permits?)
2. Because a permit is required why would the county sign off on such an inept and/or dangerous menagerie of unconventional wiring, engines, photon collection devices, etc?
(The company has been talking about UL and NTS, etc testing for years…surely something like this would have to be in place)
3. Why aren’t distributors marketing directly to the public?
When considering these things, Ms Roxanne is right — let’s see some pictures.
IF Mr S really does have a system, it’s perfectly plausible to think many systems actually will be installed because tax credits and accelerated depreciation would make the system cost effective even if it wasn’t the most efficient.

Mr. PC: On 3/13/24 Mr. S did say: "I am a now non-practicing member of the bar association."
On 10/21/24 Mr. S posted a response to me that included the statement "I would disagree, and since my 36 year legal career exceeds yours, especially in the USA, and Canada concerning investments and securities..."
On 10/17/24 Mr. S said "I have handled securities for more than 35 years."
On 10/16/24 Mr. S absurdly told me, after I used the phrase "Claims for Relief" in a post claiming securities violations by Quantum and FlooidCX: "I sincerely hope you understand that you are now violating the law by stating claims outside of a court of competent jurisdiction. In other words, you have manufactured a post that looks like it is an actual legal claim, filed with a court, but it is not."
On 10/17/24 he also absurdly told me that "Neither the SEC, nor OSC take written complaints with Claims, a legal definition under law."
Mr. S's absurd reactions to the fact that I used the phrase "Claims for Relief" in posts alleging violations of certain securities and exchange statutes make it hard for me to believe that he was ever a qualified attorney - but that's what he claimed, so I'm not saying he wasn't - I'm just saying it's hard for me to believe.
Now that I've answered your question, I have one for you: How would you evaluate this statement by Mr. S of 10/18/24: "The dopes on this board have absolutely no idea what the tech actually does. It expands photonic production, and yes, the photovoltaic production band from 40 to 52 volts to just over 5 to 100 volts, all going to storage. All loads, brilliantly in my opinion come off storage, the system up to the batteries see micro loads as it is all capacitance."

I have no idea what you’re saying. All I am saying is that instead of posting pics or a video of his installed energy system to prove what he is saying is the truth (meaning, he has a Quantum system that has been installed in his building), he argues with you and PC about cables, physics and energy. So I say it again, post some pics or other proof of your system, Mr. S, because many of us don’t know the difference between an amp, volt, or cat 5 cable.

Mr. S: What do you mean "Cat5 is 1 amp?" I provided a link to the fact that Cat 5 is rated for a maximum current of .577 amperes or 577 mA - no matter what the voltage or wattage may be. If you are actually delivering 6 watts through the cable at slightly less than 5 volts, then you must be putting slightly more than 1 amp through the cable, and you are exceeding the Cat 5 amperage rating - simple as that. Here is the link again:
https://www.circuitsgallery.com/how-much-current-can-cat5-carry/
Evidently you assumed that Cat 5 cable has the same amperage rating as RJ45. That is not the case at all. If your system is actually putting 1 amp or or more through Cat 5 cable then they need to rip it out and try again. Cat 6 is rated for 1.2 amps or more. Cat 5 is rated for less than half of that. You ought to be thanking me for pointing out a serious mistake in the system - and you have every right to demand that Quantum corrects this unacceptable mistake at their own expense, no matter the cost to them. I warned you over and over that your trust in Scammer Danzik and his fraudulent companies was very misplaced, and it seems we have just uncovered a very clear example of the consequences of misplaced trust. Instead of insulting me, maybe try asking a qualified electrical engineer who is NOT affiliated with Quantum whether Cat 5 cables are permitted under the National Building Code of Canada to carry over 1 amp (no matter the voltage) in any building! I'm confident that he will tell you that they are not - and you will have every right to demand that Quantum replace them with something better at their own expense, since they should have known better than to make such an unacceptable blunder.

Yes, my machine tool operations. My sheet metal plant is next. My savings go to 22% next June. I'll take it! My electric bill has skyrocketed over the past few years. As I stated, I ordered a substantial amount of extra lighting (my old building was very dark), and that lowered my savings. But the 5 volt lighting is great. Very happy with that part. I can tell you that delivery was VERY slow (painfully) due to Quantum ramping up production. My other building will not be done until February or later due to backlog. My distributor has been in business here for many decades. Family owned, and they are also very happy with Quantum products. I am not endorsing anything yet as all this is new to me, but so far, I am very impressed.
