Load shed
Load shed relay protects battery: During an AC power loss, the battery supplies all power to
the security system. If the battery voltage falls below 10.0 V during an AC power loss, a load
shed relay disconnects the battery from the control panel and disables control panel. Load
shed protects the battery from being damaged by deep discharge.
When AC power restores, the load shed relay reconnects the charging circuit on control panel
to the battery and the battery begins to recharge.
Over load with AC present
If devices draw more than 1.6 A of auxiliary current from the control panel with AC applied,
the control panel indicates a Panel Over-current system trouble. Unless corrected, this
condition prevents the control panel from properly maintaining the battery charge level, and
leaves the system vulnerable to failing during power outages.
To correct the issue, remove all loads to the control panel and disconnect the battery and AC
power. Fix the condition creating the over current and reconnect AC power.
A shorted battery condition (created either by a shorted cell inside the battery or by a short
on Terminals 4 and 5), might prevent the control panel from operating, or might cause the
control panel to detect a missing battery condition.
Caution!
Shorting the battery terminals is dangerous.

B520 Auxiliary Power Supply

The optional B520 Auxiliary Power Supply Module provides up to 2 A of 12 VDC standby
power for Fire and Burglar applications. For Burglar applications, an additional 2 A of alarm
power is available, allowing 2 A of standby current and up to 4 A of alarm current.
The B9512G control panels support up to 8 B520 modules. The B8512G control panels
support up to 4 B520 modules.
Connect B520 Auxiliary Power Supply Modules to the SDI2 bus on the control panel using
terminals 27 through 30 (or 23 through 26 if configured for SDI2). This section includes basic
installation instructions. For detailed installation instructions, refer to the Auxiliary Power
Supply Module (B520) Installation Guide for complete installation instructions, and for battery
standby time calculations, refer to the B520 Auxiliary Power Supply Module Battery Standby
Chart within the installation guide.
