Under a 3.4 m ceiling with 1.5 m trim and 0.3 m clearance you get 3 rows of 500 mm tile flown, which is tight; ground-stack or go lower on trim. Along the 17.1 m wall a Absen PL2.5 Plus V2 wall runs 27 x 3 (5400 x 600 px, 632 kg, 13 kW).

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Absen KLCOB 0.78 | 0.78 mm | 22 x 4 = 88 | 13.2 x 1.4 m | 16896 x 1728 | 396 kg / 873 lb | 7.8 kW, 37 A @ 208 V |
| Absen PL2.5 Plus V2 | 2.5 mm | 27 x 3 = 81 | 13.5 x 1.5 m | 5400 x 600 | 632 kg / 1,393 lb | 13 kW, 62 A @ 208 V |

Wall sizing assumes 1.5 m trim to the bottom edge, 0.3 m clearance under the ceiling, and a wall no wider than 80% of the longest wall. Weight and power are tile totals from the panel spec sheet; add processing, rigging, and cable.
