I would add that the low voltage side also needs available fault current kept below the wiring and connector limits. People don't use fuses there like they should, and a large power supply feeding many small branches is dangerous.
One building had a cable staple short the low voltage pair, and it started a fire. Because the power supply had enough current for 10 branches, each #20 AWG wire. So I added circuit breakers.
Just because the voltage is low does not mean it's safe in a Class II way.
