with Detector Bases PAD100-IB, PAD100-RB and PAD100-SB.
 PAD100-PD: Photoelectric Smoke Detector
 PAD100-PHD: Photoelectric Smoke / Heat Detector
 PAD100-HD: Heat Detector
 PAD100-CD: Carbon Monoxide Detector

3. Wiring Instruction
 To ensure proper installation of the detector head to the base, wires shall be
dressed properly at the time of installation
 When using PAD100 Bases, observe the correct polarity of SLC wiring.
NOTICE:
 THE WIRING TO BE USED SHALL BE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE
PROVISIONS OF ARTICLE 300.3(B) OF THE NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE,
NFPA 70, AS WELL AS ARTICLE 210.
 THIS EQUIPMENT SHOULD BE INSTALLED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE
NATIONAL FIRE PROTECTION ASSOCIATION STANDARD 72.
CAUTION! Break wire runs to provide supervision for connections made to each
wire pair.
Detector Base Mounting
PAD100-IB, PAD100-RB and PAD100-SB should be mounted directly on the
electrical box. The PAD100-IB, PAD100-RB and PAD100-SB mounting holes are
configured for a single gang, 4" octagon or 4" square box. Use a box for each
base and run the power circuit to all base locations.
