5. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
READ CAREFULLY – WIRING REQUIREMENTS
• This smoke alarm should be installed on a U.L. listed or recognized junction
box. All connections should be made by a qualified electrician and all wiring
used shall be in accordance with articles 210 and 300.3(B) of the U.S. National
Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70, NFPA 72 and/or any other codes having jurisdic-
tion in your area. The multiple station interconnect wiring to the alarms must
be run in the same raceway or cable as the AC power wiring. In addition, the
resistance of the interconnect wiring shall be a maximum of 10 ohms.
• The appropriate power source is regulated 120VAC (96-132VAC) AC single
phase supplied from a non-switched circuit, which is not protected by a ground
fault interrupter.
MODEL SLED177i WIRING INSTRUCTIONS: For AC QUICK CONNECT 3 WIRE HARNESS.
!
WARNING: This alarm cannot be operated from power derived from a
square wave, modified square wave or modified sine wave inverter. These type
of inverters are sometimes used to supply power to the structure in off grid
installations, such as solar or wind derived power sources. These power sources
produce high peak voltages that will damage the strobe light.
CAUTION! TURN OFF THE MAIN POWER TO THE CIRCUIT BEFORE
!
WIRING THE STROBE LIGHT.
1. When Strobe lights and alarms are interconnected, all the interconnected
devices must be powered from the same circuit.
2. A maximum of 24 Kidde Safety devices may be interconnected in a multiple
station arrangement. The interconnect system should not exceed the NFPA
interconnect limits of 12 smoke alarms and/or 18 alarms total (smoke, heat,
Carbon Monoxide, etc). With 18 interconnected alarms it is still possible to
interconnect up to a total of 6 remote signaling devices and/or relay modules.
