Grounding 24v AC IP cameras?

Recommended Posts

I appreciate all the feed back.

 

After listening to the discussion, I think I'm inclined to pull 3 conductors the first time around for camera power.

 

Easy enough not to use the ground conductor, but I'm thinking it could be a pain if it turns out to be needed and it's not there.

 

Not too worried about my cat 5 cable in this case. I'm running gigabit everywhere in the house w/o problems. Don't really anticipate any issues running 100mb to the cameras.

Heard back from Sanyo on this question.

 

Ground is not required on the camera. It's there for safety if the installer wants to ground protect the cameras in case of a power fault.

 

so there ya go.
