Yes, using remote sensing is highly recommended to ensure the intended voltage is accurately applied to the load. The output voltage from the power supply will drop across the connecting cables and contacts due to their inherent resistance. The remote sensing function of a DC power supply compensates for this voltage drop by measuring the voltage directly at the load terminals and adjusting its output accordingly. This ensures that the precise voltage set on the supply is delivered to the load.
