Why we use 4 - 20 ma?

Answer Posted / abhijith

in 4-20ma we can easily check the zero and wire breaking in
transmitter. Analog card accept 1-5v dc supply. thatsy V-IR

I=V/R
V=1V R=250OHMS

1/250 = 4MA

V=2V THEN I=2/250 = 8MA

V=3V THEN I=3/250 =12MA

V=4V THEN I= 4/250 =16MA

V=5V THEN I=5/250 = 20MA.
